Unfortunately, Mia isn’t in her most likable form in this book, and it reeks of purity culture. It very much felt like a filler to the storyline and to leave readers hanging to see what would happen next. I think things go up from here but I haven’t read these books in a decade so I don’t remember lol.

NOTE: this book is published by harpercollins, whose union is currently on strike for fair wages and stronger diversity efforts in the workplace. I will not be posting this review outside of goodreads until demands are met. For more info, follow @hcpunion on Instagram.
