Zoo Ova Everything!!!

This book had me in my feelings. I was livid with Bobbie. How could you sit back and allow your child to be mistreated? I laughed when Z pulled up on Fionna. That's right Z, beat that hiffer ass about our man, Chevy. I cried for Braylen. The little boy that never experience love but the grown man finally experiencing love, peace, and happiness.

Tatiana, I'm not sure what's in Covana, but I'm down for the ride.

We don't fuck with you. We only fuck with the ZOO!!!

Scooter is my favorite character. His growth was the highlight of this series. I was patiently waiting for him to get the life he deserves. Him & Morgan are so cute together. That secret though 🙃

I’m happy Chevy talked to Braylen & made him realize he doesn’t have to go through life alone. I kind of like Braylen & Paige together.

Out of the “Next Gen” phase this has been the best book! The growth. One thing I truly admire is how Chevy loves and respects each zoo boy and how he’s proud of them all. Like his heart is full of love.

I enjoyed getting to know Scooter and Braylen on a deeper level.

Zoo Over Everything!!!!

I am so emotional. Tatiana did her thing on the book!!!!! I was on the edge of my seat as always. I can't stop crying because I am going to miss everyone. I know we have to grow, but they have become part of my family. I love the journey Tatiana took us through. Each of one of the Zoo crew shows me that no matter what, you can get through it. I learned to love that we all go through some of these things. I saw myself in some of her characters. Life has ups and downs, but no matter what you can find your way.
Thank you, Tatiana, for this journey. I look forward to our next steps in this journey.
I thought June pulled my emotions, but this book pulled another set of emotions. The growth of the Zoo and Chevy reflecting helped me realize that you can find love in friends and develop a family with them.
Love it !!!!!!!

Zoo Over Everything!!

I’m not crying, you are! Okay, maybe I am! Tatiana Timmons did it again. I love how she takes each individual story and masterfully intertwines it with the rest. This was such an emotional journey with events I truly did not foresee occurring.

I wanted to love Braylen through the whole book, and I cheered for Scooter with every single page turn. I was shouting "Yasss girl!" to Morgan, ready to fight Fiona "Batman and Robin" style, and telling Paige to go get her man! Watching Dio show his grown-man status was so satisfying, but Chevy... Motha Fing Chevy... My man! My man!! (And a huge honorable mention to my boo, Bop!)
That is how many emotions this book took me through. Tatiana Timmons closed out this whole series in one beautiful book. Well done!

No words! WOW!!!

Tatiana you just keep getting better and better. This one had me in a choke hold! It was suspenseful, it was diabolical, it was emotional, it was deadly, it was sad at times,but in the end it all lead to a live so strong! Braylen and the Beast had to finally reconcile and find a way to exist in this story. Paige was the key. Chevy always the leader, king and voice! It was sad Keith lost his way and his life. Bobbie could no longer stand under the weight of his guilt. Naheem tried to destroy Bishop but in the end he ended up at The Zoo literally and that evil Fiona finally got all her karma. This was so emotional, I truly felt like I was part of this game. Excellent read! Can't wait for the next one!!!

As always Tati took us for a wild ride. I was so excited for Beans' story and I did not disappoint. Scooter slightly started to grow on me this go round. each release allows us to get additional insight into the characters. As always the trigger warnings are super helpful. We understand the root of why they are so unhinged at times. People saw Beans' upbringing and prejudge him without knowing all of the things that went on inside those mansion walls. I do enjoy the multiple POVs as well. It makes me happy to see so many of the HEA.

I really loved this book. It might honestly be one of my favorites from the Zoo series so far. Tatiana Timmons did her thing with this one. The story pulled me in and kept me hooked the whole time.

The ending got me a little emotional (yes, I shed a small tear), but in the best way. It wrapped up so nicely while still making me excited to see where she takes the characters and stories next. If you’re following the Zoo series, this one is definitely a must read. I’m already looking forward to what comes next.

Zoo over everything period 🧡

Growth & Respect

I’m proud of the orange and blue. Bop and Chevy being cool is what’s up. The next gen of zoo boys really out here making moves. Beans has so many layers and getting though all of them really made his story one of the most memorable. Now DIO everybody done been initiated except mars. What you waiting on. Also Fiona right up there with Chevy grand daddy. Can’t stand her. The unity in both sides. The next gen making their mark. Baby zoo over everything. Love this series down.

It has been a minute since I enjoyed a read like this. I'm talking feet kicking, smiling into my phone, and audible cheers good!

I am still getting used to the new additions but this was a great wrap up to the series.

Look fwd Street's story, what's next for The Prestige, The Blue & the Orange.

“Zoo ova everything!”

Can I say how much I liked the "press play" feature? Get out of my head, Tatiana!!

You really are an artist at what you do and I can’t thank you enough for sharing your gift!!

Hmm.. I know we’ve been touching a little bit on the fantasy side since Chevy & Za.. don’t get me wrong i love a little fantasy. Anywho, i love that one of the characters pretty much got a second chance. I love how the girls came together and things was squashed by the boys. Poor Navi, i really wish she gets her happy ending. Idk I really wanted someone else for Bop. Anywho next stop ..

My heart is so warm

This was so good! The layers to these characters is amazing, and even more so the only unwrapping of each one is like a Christmas present. Seriously I love Beans and his ending which is really his true beginning couldn’t have been written any better!!

Them Zoo Boyz

I love how they always stick together no matter what. ( Zoo Over Everything) they are all strong men and women that have gone through something in their lives but with true friendship and loyalty that have a bond that can't be broken and a Lock that can't be picked that turned into family

Miss Ma’am you did it again…From the Zoo to the Cove you did your big 1…The book showed how ppl could co-exist…Knowing what a person has been through can help you better understand why the operate the way that they do…I feel like Chevy understood what Beans had been through because he went through some of the same things…Love prevailed for Beans and Paige
