If you don’t like YA books, read this. That may sound strange but this is very different from your typical YA book. It’s not cheesy and handles very heavy topics really well. I absolutely love Rev Fletcher. I liked him a lot in Letters to the Lost (the first book to this companion novel) but I honestly started reading this book to see more of Juliet and Declan. HOWEVER, I was reading it for Rev by chapter two. I just want to hug him and protect him. He’s honestly my favorite boy character ever. He was the sweetest. I cried so many times during this book. There were happy tears and sad tears and angry tears and frustrated tears… it was a mess haha. Please look up trigger warnings, but if you read it, you’ll love it.
