September Wrap Up | 2020

this book was just kind of meh for me i think it had a ton of potential but just fell flat in so many ways

this was disappointing for me i actually buddy read this from with sarah jane the book life and we both agreed that it was just not what we had hoped it is this interesting world that i should have really enjoyed but it just like it wasn't fleshed out enough

sadly i didn't end up liking this for a couple of reasons one i didn't love the writing style

so i'm really enjoying this i really pulled for the characters i thought they're really sweet there was some stuff towards the end that i was kind of like and that was like a little bit dramatic for no reason but that's kind of how it is with romances sometimes so i kind of forgave that but i gave this 3.5 to 3.75 out of 5 stars and really recommend it

i love this just as much on reread as i loved it the first time these kids are like my favorite nerdy trash kids trying their best and the atmosphere is so lush and i really like the different houses the political system the world just everything

i did love the characters even more in this book though because we get to see like so many more dimensions of them and some of them are being really like shitty and you're going to see like that behavior and just like the like how grief is affecting them and things like that so that was really good
