Where to start with this book. I won't lie. I love the story but I HATED the characters, well not all but Siena and Cameron the most... mostly Cameron. She gave off “ALL MEN ARE ASSHOLES AND NONE OF THEM COULD REMOTELY BE GOOD.” Did she treat Isaac nicely? Barely. Cam was the one to make a possible 5 star book into a 3.That being said I still have no clue on what the fuck Emmett did. Honest to God. I don't know if I missed it or if she just didn't say it. You know how they say men shouldn't write women? I am going to say S.A. shouldn't or at least not Lesbians because the guys were pretty good in this book. Besides the limp dick characters I adored the story. If I was judging just on the story the book would be about a 5 if not a 5. It felt kind of like Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer in the sense of being in a SciFi bubble. the time being a mess is GREAT. Sad that Isaac had to die but what happened to him in general was GREAT. The ever changing forest to fuck with them was GREAT. I just honestly love the story. Would I read the second book? Most likely. I just hope she does better with her characters.Edit: Lowered the rating since finding an answer to my question.
