I don't know if I finished the book or if it finished me. I am thankful the book doesn't romanticize mental illness or make it seem easy with medication. I just have no words for the experience I just had..

Lots of miscommunication and it has a lot of saying oh this might happen and then it happens in the next chapter. I do love the series though

Honestly I enjoyed it but the physics of the spicy scenes was too much for me like most of the time I didn't even know what direction they were facing or how many limbs they had. The story also uses a shot ton of references to music and different bands so it kinda lost me but if you're a rock or a metal fan you should be good. All in all good dark romance, crazy how easily people forgive like damn I would never speak to these assholes again but you do you boo.
