my least favorite of the series (ignoring the first one, which I might go back and finish). maybe I was a little burnt out after speed running the middle three books in a row. 

to be fair, I knew I didn’t care for the tropes in this book (I’m fine with an age gap, just want both parties to have fully developed prefrontal cortexes — like in Cade and Willa’s book) and I didn’t like the execution of the third act conflict very much. Their whole relationship felt kind of one-sided in a way that doesn’t seem like an equal partnership.
