i somewhat liked the beginning and end parts but hated the middle. i actually liked their awkward conversations (at the start) and i liked the way their feelings were described during those periods of their lives.
but for some reason when they were in college i was literally falling asleep. they should have never reconnected after high school. i wasn’t even sure what they felt so drawn to each other for. i felt zero chemistry between them. i don’t even know what they connect on. their conversations have no substance half the time. they never say how they actually feel. i did not care for either of their characters. its just pages and pages of literally nothing going on for nothing to be accomplished.
the writing was weird and confusing to follow. i feel like a big reason i didn’t connect with the story is because there are so many time jumps, and within the time jumps the story isn’t even told in chronological order. for example we’ll jump 3 months, then they’re talking about something that happened a month ago, and then we jump to said scene, then we go back to them discussing it. it was so annoying. it happened every.single.time. just stop jumping through time so damn much just to go back and explain what happened if those periods of time were so important to the story? idek if this makes sense im just rambling atp. and i couldn’t even skim through this just for the dialogue because there are no quotation marks for me to follow it.
anyways im annoyed because i was promised pain and angst, yet i felt nothing but drowsiness.
boring, bland, zero chemistry, terrible smut, worse writing.
the beginning was ok, but it honestly went so downhill after the halfway point. the ‘trauboring, bland, zero chemistry, terrible smut, worse writing.
the beginning was ok, but it honestly went so downhill after the halfway point. the ‘trauma’ in the middle gets completely sweeped under the rug and ceases to exist after like one chapter. it felt like it was added just for dramatic effect. the ending felt extremely rushed and underwhelming.
the couple’s build up was so poorly done, i felt absolutely nothing for them. the dialogue was cringe. his name is patrick but her nickname for him is “paddy” … even during sex. and that nickname instantly makes me think of a granny named patty so like no thank yew.
also no i don’t speak german but i used this edition because i can’t stand the other cover. ...more
started off promising but the story lost me along the way. why was there sm side characters and their drama that we don’t care about we ain’t here forstarted off promising but the story lost me along the way. why was there sm side characters and their drama that we don’t care about we ain’t here for that. i got so bored. and there truly weren’t enough scenes between the mcs. and then not him getting a tat for her a few weeks in?? you’re simply doing too much sir.

i liked seeing some of the dynamics from beyond the veil and some characters’ feelings towards the others, but this could have been way more concise ai liked seeing some of the dynamics from beyond the veil and some characters’ feelings towards the others, but this could have been way more concise and to the point. it did not need to be over 500 pages long. this just had way too much unnecessary information within it that it took away from the enjoyable aspects. i would rather end a book wanting for more than less. so this is just tragic.
the flashback scenes felt like a book within a book. we got SO MUCH unnecessary details about characters that we A) DO NOT KNOW and more importantly B) DO NOT CARE ABOUT.
that darius/caleb/seth scene at the end had me laughing out loud so i have to give a special shoutout to that one chapter. and even though all the bluelance crumbs were copy paste from book 8 i ate them all up and loved every second.
oh and in case book 9 doesn’t sound scary enough we’re left with this warning for it: ”Beware the words on the page, for darkness follows the readers who dance along their lines of ink.”...more

jacks: the saving grace
i did like tella’s character in this book. i understand her and her motives now, but like do i care about them? debatable. she just didn’t grip me. she’s very impulsive and makes dumb decisions everyday of her life. this is not the type of relatability i wanna have with a character. i also didnt realize she was 16 in this book until the end bye. it all makes sense now.
dante dante dante please find a personality. he’s so boring omg how can anyone root for him. he has no charisma. i did not care for him. and that whole “fake fiance” business was his own doing, so don’t be getting mad about it you donut.
jacks was the star of the show. he’s the only interesting character in this book. his story was so intriguing. he was funny. he was charming. he was smooth. he actually had charisma. his lines had me cackling. and he’s so hot i want him to have my babies...more
