I really appreciated his character development and how he reacted to Hannah and helped her throughout the book, and in turn how she helped him. This was genuinely my favourite read through this time and I’m so glad about that! This was cheesy and had some darker moments (check TWs) but I really enjoyed it overall!

No offence to the Garrattes of the world). I’ve now read this book 3 times because that’s how many times I’ve told myself I’m going to actually go through with it and fully read this series! We’ll see if that happens this time or not… □ |
