Your Fault by Mercedes Ron

I think they should have just left the first book as the only book cause this seemed like a hot mess dumpster fire. I was getting After series vibes with the toxicity and craze between Noah & Nick and idk if I can handle it anymore. Extra star for the extra drama lol.

I enjoyed the plot but felt like there were sooo many party scenes...but overall, fun read. Like if After series met Boys of Tommen series met Twisted series. But it was still it's own but it did give me the vibes of those three series!

Cute prologue and cute story. It was an enjoyable read but it didn't grasp me as much as I wanted it to. It was just a fine read. But I love a small town and could see myself returning back to the small town for the other character's stories.

Such a cute and fun YA! Reminds me of when I was back in high school and all the feelings with boys and friendships. Sigh...life was simpler back then. Made this read cozy, light, and enjoyable.

I wanted more of the guys in the group, they were so funny but I loved this sweet second chance, marriage in crisis story. If you like "Untying the Knot" by Meghan Quinn or "Lose Her or Love Her" by Tessa Bailey, you will love this one as well!

I ate this up. Absolutely devoured it. I loved the erratic writing style and the writing throughout that reflects the main character's development. Loved all the characters and setting. Very creative. I'm excited to start this adventure to this series!

It started out very exciting and I was excited to hop into this story but I feel like I lost interest soon after and it never picked up for me. It also got pretty predictable. I also feel like the end was thrown in and smushed in at the last few pages and felt very rushed. It almost seemed kind of random - I feel like there could have been more insight to the end throughout the book for how large the book it. But it was still an enjoyable read overall. However, I did NOT like Saeris and never got around to liking her so it kind of ruined it for me. I didn't feel like she had much character development and yet could do so much in this realm. Carrion and Kingfisher and Renfis were great and loveable.

Adding this to my list of rom coms that need to be turned into a movie! This was so cute from beginning to end and made for a perfect and classic romantic comedy. I loved the flirtatious banter and warm fuzzy feelings throughout. The side characters were just as incredibly loveable as the main characters. I loved that this is Cinderella inspired, making it an easy and cute read.
