AWWWW. THIS WAS ADORABLE. AND HILARIOUS. AND SIMPLY AMAZING IN EVERY WAY. The banter, plot, writing, characters, and the dialogue were all written amazingly. Humor in this book is also handled so well, and I was cackling and smiling at every other sentence, and I know a book is good when it makes me look like crazy person in public:) The old gay British ladies, brought warmth into the iceberg that is often my heart, and just the pure love that Eve and Jacob share is beautiful in a way that’s somehow simultaneously wonderfully down to earth, and also straight out of a fairytale. Possibly the best part of this story though, was the way being neurodivergent was represented and written! The different representations of autism and ADHD were amazing, and I think I relate to Jacob a little too much…Top-tier book, this was incredible!

This book had me looking longingly at my bookshelf, daydreaming about reading literally anything else. I honestly just don’t think the writing style was for me. There was no plot, no likable characters, and the whole book just felt like a fever dream. I feel like the author was trying to say something about feminisim and art, but it didn’t hit for me at all.

The slight bit of boredom I felt while reading about the work/office sub-plot took this a tiny bit down from 5 stars. THIS BOOK WAS STILL INCREDIBLE THO. Both main characters were actually incredibly likable, which was kind of like a breath of fresh air after all the morally grey characters I’ve read as of late. Iwan and Lemons love story is SO TENDER AND SWEET, I CANNOT. I strive to have a love story like that, this was such a silly little treat.

This was very interesting…the book touches on things like the art world, mental health, rich people, and even the simple act of lying, and brings in such beautifully written and very interesting ideas about all of those things. The writing was so good, I was literally thinking and talking in the style it’s written in for a while. But the characters were insufferable, and I got kind of bored in the middle, so I think 3.5 stars is a good rating.

This was so iconic on so many different levels. The mystery in this one I thought was even better than the first book, and the way that Deans trauma is revisited through the lense of The Naturals solving the crime, was an incredible way to weave everything togather. The 5 main kids in this book all love and hate each other so much, and it’s honestly beautiful. Like they all found family. IM A SUCKER FOR THAT TROPE. Also in the end, I think Cassie really did pick the right guy out of the love triangle, I was simping all through both books, SO I THOROUGHLY APPROVE. These characters truly do feel like my children, I WILL BE READING THE NEXT BOOK AS SOON AS I CAN SECURE IT FROM BARNES AND NOBEL.

The writing was actually hilarious. I was cackling, and kicking my feet like an insane person almost all the way through. On top of that, the families in this story were so flushed out and beautifully written, and the way everyone is so wonderfully represented is incredible. Main love story was incredible, funny, and tender, I cried like a baby at multiple points towards the end. I appreciate that the main man in this book actually feels his feelings at some points, instead of having the emontional depth of a woodchip. INCREDIBLE READING EXPERIENCE, I NEED TO READ MORE EMILY HENRY SOON.

I was very bored for the first like 120 pages of this book. Don’t think it was necessarily bad, just wasn’t locked in on the mystery and FBI element to fully enjoy it. But once I DID lock in, this book was so amazing and entertaining. I know the plot might be basic to some people who read a lot of murder mystery, but I’ve not experienced a lot of the genre so the plot kept me guessing the whole time. The layering of serious and compelling murder and FBI training with teenager romance and drama made it so silly, loved this.

LADIES. PRO TIP. If a man says the words “you belong to me”, your instantaneous reaction should be to RUN, not spend the remaining 250 pages of this train wreck book, falling HEAD OVER HEELS FOR HIM. The crime/murder sub-plot was actually somewhat interesting to me, but the way Alex acts and treats Ava in this book sent it immediately to one star. BOUNDARIES? Who is she. EMOTIONAL REGULATION? Never heard of her. ANGER AND VIOLENCE MANAGEMENT? She’s not even in the same universe. Alex should’ve gotten a restraining order about 800 times throughout the duration of this book. I’ve been scarred for life🫡

The cover is making me regret the majority of my life choices leading up to this point

This book broke me in two, while simultaneously preforming an exorcism on me, and ridding life of its horrifying reality. I would like so much to say that this was just a silly little series that was all fun and games, and I’m DEFINITELY not crying now, but all of that is in fact, wildly untrue. This was insanity in a weirdly addicting way, and if Kai and Pae don’t get a cute little ending, and throw themselves into each others arms, I am going to go live in a hole and rot there for the rest of my mortal life. Can’t wait for book 3!!!

UG I wanted to dislike this book so bad. It’s weirdly overwritten and dramatic and the male main character is so cliche, for me it seemed like it’d be like a more hunger games focused Shatter Me. But it wasn’t. For some odd reason, I loved this book so much and blew through it really fast, and got really invested and attached to the characters. Kai is oddly heartwarming, Kitt is an interesting look on what can happen when you do nothing but seek approval, and I kind of adored the way Paedyn ruthlessly gaslight, gatekeep, girlbossed her way through everything.
