"She's like poison and magic rolled into one."
Alright now that a few days have passed and I’ve had time to recover I can review this one. This book, even though she’s chunky, is one that anybody who loves romance books should read. Like hands down it is the most beautiful, heartbreaking, tragic, perfect story. I loved literally everything about this book. And I hated this book so much. I cannot explain to you the emotional roller coaster this book had me on. I don’t think I’ve ever sobbed so much. I have never been so invested in characters! They felt so real. It was an amazing reading experience and worth the lack of sleep I got from staying up to finish it.
I don’t know what else I can really say besides the author does a fabulous job of giving us all the things we need in this story. At first I was annoyed with the high school element, but it’s not forever and honestly it is such a crucial piece of understanding the Lennon and Phoenix. I loved the way the characters both experienced some reasonable and believable changes in their lives. Also I love a good enemies to lovers, although this might be the first time I had a friends to lovers to enemies to lovers story. And if that hurt your head… just imagine what it’s going to do to your emotions.
This book was one of the few impossible to put down, I still think about this when I shouldn’t books that I’ve read in a long time. I cannot explain to you how much I simultaneously loved and hated Phoenix while reading this book. It’s honestly equal to my love/hate with the book… every single time I’d get excited because things were going well I would realize a lot of book was left for me to be wrecked with. Basically I highly recommend this book and enjoy your emotions being destroyed over and over.
