I enjoyed it, quite a few frustrating decisions but I am thinking of how amazing it would have felt to read this when I didn’t know the entire plot because of the movies. Some of her feelings were difficult to read because I understood them as well. But overall I’m enjoying it. It has flaws so it’s not the best but I’d recommend it. Also team Jacob even though I know that can’t happen I love Jacob.

I really enjoyed the first part of this book. I didn’t want to put the book down and it was pretty hooking the whole way through but I was especially excited in the beginning because it gave “you” vibes. The character Alex originally reminded me of Joe Goldberg. Though in the second part I didn’t love the direction the story was taking and especially didn’t like the ending. They definitely romanticized stalking, the end letter making that extremely apparent. “Stalking just shows true love” which I mean it could just be like oh yeah she’s crazy and that’s the point but I just hope no guy reads this and thinks that the results that come from stalking in this book would be reality. Also the decisions made by some people frustrated me. With all that though I still really enjoyed the book, it was extremely entertaining and I’d re read it and recommend it.

I hated how it was written, I hated the characters, I hated the insta love and trauma bonding. Just really didn’t like this book.

I have a rule to get great surprises from books that I don’t read the backs, however that worked out worse for this book in specific since I wasn’t expecting all of the suicide talk and I really am not in the right frame of mind to be hearing all of those details. So just warning you if you don’t feel ready , don’t read it. But also probably don’t read it anyway because it’s not like there was anything I enjoyed about it.

It’s a great book, I love that it’s more from the gone series and I love the new powers and just the crazy ideas of what the powers could be and just new kinds of powers however I didn’t feel as connected to these characters as I did during the gone series other than the ones that are the OGs. I hope that that’s just because it is the first book and it’ll change but when things happen it feels like it makes less of an impact on me. The powers are insane and so cool though. Just losing the mystery and having it as a straight action book means I like it a bit less as well.

I definitely enjoyed this one. Wrapping everything up so perfectly. I’ve never been so happy with how a series has ended. Usually I either feel like they wrapped it up wrong or I feel like I just want to keep knowing so much more. But the way this was wrapped up I feel like I know exactly how it’ll go without them telling me and it was perfect. The fight would’ve been cool to see but I was still impressed with how the scene went. I was interested the whole time, connected to all the characters. I loved the change in POV although Jacob did get a bit annoying and repetitive they stopped it just in time. Really just well done final book. I recommend!
