5 stars is a feeling and it is whatever feeling is in this book 
from the very first page to the last, is it tainted by the intense grief and loneliness of Geppetto
this was a life changing journey for me

took me a long time to finish this bc I didn’t really like the beginning and how lusty it always was but very pleasantly surprised by how invested I got in this

I’m not very educated on school shootings but in any case the book is low-key not good. Like very boring. I had to push through to not just give up at the beginning. It gets better chapter by chapter though.

Bon……. J’ai commencé à aimé à partir de la 3ème partie donc faut vraiment s’accrocher quoi mais ensuite ça s’est tellement accéléré et j’étais vraiment dedans.
Le plot twist est vraiment cool et franchement c’était unpredictable donc vraiment pas mal.
Juste dommage pour le faux départ

Je me remets tout juste de la fin et….. je suis brisée vraiment c’est chaud.
J’ai le coeur en miette je me remets pas de cette histoire avec Saren. Je me sens vraiment trahie parce que je l’ai vraiment pris comme une figure paternelle moi aussi et j’ai l’impression que c’est moi qu’on a trompé c’est affreux. Aussi génial que le tome 1 vraiment c’est trop fort.
Toujours autant amoureuse de Killian si ce n’est plus, je suis littéralement la présidente de son fan club.

Where can I start
Tbh I didn’t enjoy 3/4 of the book. I strongly dislike Alex Volkov and his whole archetype. I usually love grumpy/sunshine dynamics but Alex wasn’t grumpy, he was straight up mean and weird all the god damn time. (and a stalker btw)
What would have happened if Ava never forgave him? He would have followed her everywhere and threaten to kill anybody who’s close to her for the rest of his life?
Loved my girl Ava & Bridget.
Overall not so good, I was hooked when the plot twist happened bc guess what ? Alex Volkov wasn’t talking about sex 24/7
