Read this book for the closure. Stopped where it SHOULD have ended because ik the author wont give me it. Ignoring some of the frustratingly stupid parts... Great read. Had so much fun. It actually managed to soften my perspective of BJ, tho still not much of a fan of him. Magnolia's adventures was a rollercoaster like always and she has a genuine moment of potential great character development (that of course the author ruined but i shall pretend she didn't) 

This is how I shall remember this book ending:
she has her lil darkening moment WHICH I LOVE AND IS MY FAV PART OF THIS GOD FORSAKEN SERIES. Julian Haites and Magnolia are my fav couple in this series to be fucking real (tho no couple is that healthy in this series tbh BUT THEY ARE THE CLOSEST SO FAR IG. They had chemistry atleast). They ended up together yep and become a mafia/gang power-couple and Magnolia realizes her mental issues before coming to UNDERSTAND THAT HER ATTACHMENT TO BJ WAS LARGELY A COPING THING YEP, AND SHE ENDS UP WITH JULIAN TO BECOME THE LADY OF HIS GANG EMPIRE OR WHATEVER. THEY'RE SUPER HAPPY TOGETHER YEP.
