i hate'because when i'm not what works for people at that time in their lives, when i'm not a convenient version of me, i always manage to lose them.'
i hate them both. especially her, litch the definition of a child and insanity.
she spends 95$ on a gazillion throw pillows + useless ass boxes + a bunch of other useless shit when they needed that LIMITED money for necessary renovations. like the house is on its last bones and she's buying throw pillows. what! and because he's rightfully mad at her for spending that much on the dumbest shit, she gets mad at him stomps around like an actual child at her big age and uses his toothbrush to scrub the toilet AND let him use it for weeks. she's so fucking sick and twisted
and! she draws the line at a bed, an actual necessity and acts like she did the world a favor. i feel like i need to be admitted at the mental institute, she has me going crazy
'we can't ever seem to get on the same page, the right foot, or build a good foundation no matter how hard we try."
do i have to hold ur hand and tell u that this is a big sign from God himself. this man was walking on glass every single time he was around her, to the point i actually felt bad for him even tho i cannot, for the life of me, stand him
and then to make matters just so much better, they name their child Dot. DOT! is this real. nara smith would cry. "just dot, because she is IT. period." omds. it was easy to read until it wasn't and that's the only reason it's getting two stars. the epilogue should've been them admitting themselves in the mental institute part of prison...more

the way i wanted to kill myself while reading this horI GIVE UP. i tried. i really really tried but i refuse to torture myself any longer. dnf at 59%
the way i wanted to kill myself while reading this horrendous, atrocious book.
evidence:
➺ "Petite, drop-dead gorgeous brunette"
↳ petite was so necessary to add to her description. the book couldn't have went on without that important piece of info.
➺ 'the stunning little thing' ➺ 'she hoists herself up on a bar stool-with great effort,'
↳ I'm sorry, is she a toddler?
➺ 'I've pulled countless muscles trying to crawl up walls towards shelves."
↳ i'm actually cryinggg, she's 5'1. FIVE ONE. crawling up walls like a cockroach.
➺ "I've got a feeling you're the type of song i'd play on repeat."
↳ he's 27 speaking like this.
➺ "Because you're special, Olivia."
↳ they had one conversation (it lasted for 7 mins). they met once. what's so special about her? that she's "abnormally" short?
➺ '..before stuffing her back in her seat, she topples sideways.'
↳ is she a bobblehead?
➺ "I'm used to being the shortest person in the room."
↳ she's a highschool teacher and ur telling me everyone is 6 ft? bc i promise u 5'1 is not that short and uncommon, especially for highschool kids.
➺ "I'll be good. For her. For Olivia."
↳ wdym for her? i mean what even interests u about her?!!?? this is not love at first sight. he sees her dancing & he's immediately infatuated which is COMPLETE & utter bs since he's a literal whore. pls he's so interested bc she rejected him, get the FUCK out of my face.
➺ "Hear that big buddy?"
↳ he talks to his dick and named it 'Thunder sword'
➤ he also fked her when she was drunk out of her mind, knowing she was drunk out of her mind bc HE got her drunk. and this was after she gave a speech for days about how she wants this to be slow and all. im acc sick. dont even get me started on the contradictions, she's so annoying she cant make up her mind and expects his ugly ass to keep up with her.
➺ "Thank you for being patient with me and giving me some time."
↳ HELLOOOOO am i the only one with a mf memory here??? im convinced the author has short term memory loss. this was said AFTER they fked. im appalled.
➺ "I'm so short and he's so tall so are we even all that compatible,"
??
➺ 'My mom becomes a cat, clawing at my legs.'
↳ bitch ARE U FUCKING SERIOUSSS pls get realllllllll are u a fucking statue? relax...more
'they were binary stars, trapped in each other's gravitational field and easily diminished without the other's opposing force.'
never read
'they were binary stars, trapped in each other's gravitational field and easily diminished without the other's opposing force.'
never read this sorry excuse of a book. i can't tell u how many repetitions are in here, how pretentious the writing and the characters are, how spoiled and full of themselves they are. the plot is non-existent and i'm not even being dramatic- absolutely not a thing happens. this is not even fantasy this is a brain tumor.
they all hate each other and that's the plot- them finding new ways to hate each other. not one single cute bond. not one redeeming factor in this book.
nico and libby had the greatest potential, the missed opportunity hurts my soul. she set him on fire when they first met? the a1 banter? i cry
'a uniquely upsetting curse, really, how little he knew how to exist when she wasn't there.'
libby was so two-faced. with nico she was confident and had a brain. with the others, its like its a whole different character, cus her brain? empty.
anytime she was mentioned the words annoying and dangerous followed. she's the annoying one in the group because she asks questions, like she's genuinely confused cus as she should be? this society came to recruit them and told them no information- she’s so so very dangerous. why? idk. what has she done? not a thing except a small black hole THAT NICO HELPED HER WITH.
i don't even wanna get started on the threesome. they got her drunk, parisa was tryna convince her that sex doesnt have to be meaningful and it could be fun, she kissed her without permission and then when libby wasn't convinced still, parisa told tristan to kiss her and convince her and she was convinced. she cheated on her man who is worried about her waiting for her at home
[image]
parisa and her entire personality being a whore and dangerously beautiful. i'm saying anytime she was mentioned or when she was talking- it was about sex and how she can manipulate everyone bc she's so pretty.... can u die
callum, i don't hate anyone in this book as much as i hate him. even hating them all combined doesn't compare. spoiled and pretentious? he's the definition. i legit skipped all his dialogue and his 70 page chapters because u could not pay me enough. do ik his power after 580 pages? nope
nico was living in his own world with the dreams and mermaids idek the correlation. reina was the most irrelevant character. she was supposed to be one of the main characters but we barely get her pov and when we do it's the most irrelevant. tristan i dont even wanna talk about him- he fked parisa and libby and now suddenly cares about them esp after hating libby for 90% of this book........
them being shocked they have to kill someone in their group is beyond comical, do u bitches hate each other or not?
wtf is ezra's part in all this? i cba or paid enough to go back and read the 800 pages towards the end. also libby hating him cus he worries about her...what.. thats ur man.. id be worried if he didnt babes.
olivie needs to pay me for having to go through 580 pages of pure atrocious hideous garbage. this book was so bad, i skipped dialogue. i skipped the last chapter which contained 600 pages of nothing. all those pages and was there character growth? did ANYTHING happen? L O L...more
an updated review. one star for tristan. this story had so much potential, like it genuinely did. the beginning of the story caught my attention and ian updated review. one star for tristan. this story had so much potential, like it genuinely did. the beginning of the story caught my attention and it was amazing and i expected so much more but the author did not deliver. the 3rd pov was not for this story whatsoever. it made no sense and it SHOULD have been in first person, so thats one reason i hated it. secondly, she had way too many repetitions to even ENJOY the damn book, every 5 seconds she's mentioning his "whisky and sin voice" bitch i could honestly not care less about that. not to mention his BLUE eyes. like what is so interesting and exotic about some blue eyes? like she cannot be serious. she talked about them every 0.1 second, thats all she talked about and nothing pissed me off more. you guys could not believe the amount of times i looked around the room, my eyes dead almost fell out bc i rolled them EVERY WORD. like holyyy WHY why does this book get recommended idk.
it was also very very dragged out, it should have been 700988 pages less. the story could have been so good like bro and the transition at the end to the second book was PHENOMENAL. HOWEVER, my million reasonable reasons stand. and so i will not be reading the rest of the series, which i would have liked to read and i wish someone could rewrite this into the actual potential that it could be. they also barely ever spoke. and the sexual tension is there BUT there is no connection whatsoever. another thing that pissed me tf off is when she kept saying his full name in its entirety. are u even ok? we're like in the last chapter and she still says his full name, like sis we know his name please stop. anywho, i feel like this book was written in a way that she was just using a bunch of filler words because she didn't want to shut the fuck up but she really needed to stfu.
