Crossfire by Malorie Blackman
4.0
Ok honestly thought I wasn’t going to enjoy this one as much as the previous books because I took one look at that family tree and just went “NOPE” and let’s just say Toby Durbridge I am extremely disappointed in you. I DID NOT READ OVER 400 PAGES OF PINING JUST FOR YOU TO STICK IT ELSEWHERE!
Once I got over that however I was hooked as per usual, Malorie once again I adore you and the only reason this was a 4* is strictly because of the cliffhanger ending.
Character analysis because we have newbies and why not:
Sephy: glad to see your redeeming yourself on the motherhood front. 2nd times a charm I guess, however you’re saying “no glove, no love” to the wrong person *side eyes toby*.
Sonny: I like you but why are you being so suspicious now??? I swear to god I pitied you in checkmate and if you’re playing us all I’m so done.
Callie: ok miss Elle Woods absolutely get it I’m so proud of you! You are an angel you can do no wrong I adore you so much keep being you bby.
Toby: ….I’m gonna chop your dick off. (Idc if you slightly redeemed yourself at the end I’m still mad at you.
You have one more book left to fix your priorities sir).
Troy: I’m sorry you have such a frat boy name and all I could think was Zack Efron but I like you so far you’re pretty cool. Also very petty which I’m here for, please don’t make me hate sonny though idk if I can do that.
Libby: yikes you drew the short straw parent wise I’m so sorry hon, you’ve got both bark and bite though which I like a lot and you deserve so much better than what you’re getting rn.
Actually very much looking forward to end game and very much ready for the tears to be shed.
