what to say…what to say…
guys! i am so sad this series is ending. however can I just say what a book 😮‍💨 i love the fairytale lore this book has. i was so interested in how the story would go and how they would betray the villains and the new characters, and i thought they were constructed so well. i really like the ending…i just wish i got to see them as a couple 😩 however, i’m still satisfied with how the story went and how they ended up together. honestly, i love them so much 💗 long live Evangeline and Jacks 💪🏾🥳

it was a decent book. however, the subplot with roman was a bit random to me and wasn’t executed as clearly as it could have. i also think they didn’t repair their relationship in the most healthy way but a win is a win and they’re back together

I think the story was cute. It was a nice story. The characters had their growth. It wasn’t as predictable as I thought you know but it was nothing spectacular, but it was still nice. Really very cute couple happy for them 🥰

i liked the way the story progressed, developed and unraveled in this book. it was very interesting to have more parts of the plots to be revealed and how that created further depth of the characters but also made the ‘problem’ in the books, a bigger, more real threat.

i was going throughhhh it guys. when i tell you i felt no peace until the book was finished and closed. it was a tense journey and the plot twists mehnnn…i was like no way you’re doing this to my good sis…free her fr. it also shocked me that the book ended in a cyclical structure - with the first words of the first book as the last words of the last book. and to think her name isn’t even mara dyer 😖

3.0

i don’t know how to feel about this book. it was quite hard to adjust to everyone being the opposite gender and remember who is who due to the name changes. aside from that it was quite fun reading the original twilight plot flipped. until the end. i hated the ending. i think that the fact that beau became a vampire so early on and faked his own death was really selfish and naive. to put his family through unnecessary grief  stupid, i honestly would have preferred if he actually died since the author made it seem impossible to have the original ending

honestly this book is really original and unique to me. i’ve never read a book with a similar plot. to me the vibes are reminiscent of twilight as it has quite a depressed tone and ‘blue filter’ over it. i feel bad for mara honestly… i found the gradual progression of her condition to be really interesting and i just had to keep reading. it also helps that she has one fineeee boyfriend 😏 luv u noah 😘

i thoroughly throughly enjoyed this book from start to end. i found the book very interesting and captivating.. it was hard to put down.

can i just have a moment of silent for the dilf that is vincent. honestly it was an emotional rollercoaster this book. when vincent died, my heart broke for oraya. also the fact there was no dramatic irony, the plot twist were even better and it was like i was experiencing it with oraya. before the betrayal at the end, i honestly was the sailor of the raihn and oraya ship. i don’t know we’re going to fix this relationship but it can be done 🤧. honestly the slow burn was so well done. anyway i loved the book 💗
