3.5 stars rounded up.
This one started SO GOOD and I was super hopeful that it was gonna be a 5-star standout this month. But alas .. it didn't. I still enjoyed it immensely though!
Let's start with the good:
Great idea for a plot.
Loved the paranormal aspect of the plot
Adored Cal and Dawson kinda dating again. They were so sweet and so romantic.
Loved that Cal doesn't keep the Pnr aspect to himself. I was worried that he would never tell Dawson.
Great plot development and I could really feel the difference between old and new Tal.
The not so good:
The book was TOO LONG. It started out amazingly and I was sucked it right from the beginning but around the 50% mark the book dragged alot and I started skimming because it felt like many scenes were repeating themselves. I felt like I lost some steam along the way and that made the second half of the book kind of slow for me.
A bit of inconsistencies here and there concerning the PNR aspect and how Cal knew some things but not others. It needed a bit more tightening up imo.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book and the author's writing style and I'm excited for more in this world.

Great review! 💜 I'm really intrigued by this, and aside from the length, I'm cautiously optimistic, it'll be a good read. Happy to see that it had some good points that made it enjoyable for you. 😊

Yess!! Same. I'm excited for Ellis and Gabe. I do think that this is a fantastic debut considering though.

Thank you Amina!! I hope you find it enjoyable as well. I kept in mind it was a debut, so taking that into account it's really good.
