You ever read a series by an author and there are these great side characters…and you wish there was time to follow up or dig into their stories a little more? Why do they react certain ways? What happened to them…and where are they going?

The Forgotten does exactly that with a collection of novellas…but make no mistake, this is a dark omegaverse world!

I was especially excited for Cian’s story but I can say I loved every single novella!

I highly recommend reading the other books first, but if you are a little unhinged and things like reading order mean nothing to you, don’t be afraid to jump right in!

⚠️As always, check the content warnings first!!

[Anya]

Literally the only thing I could say is, this was perfect. Olivia, Orla, and Cian’s stories were ✨chef’s kiss✨
That’s it, that’s my entire review. It was perfect, a must read after finishing the Unhingedverse.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Read the content warnings before each story!

This review is only of ‘Knot a Possibility’

I am a big fan of Jenn’s. I really am. I keep a whole document of small tidbits of the different characters in the different stories so I can keep track of them all when a new book comes out because I love the whole world so much. I read every book that comes out in her universe. That may change..

That being said what the actual hell was this book?

(Ridiculous that Jenn didn’t put ‘Knot a Possibility’ in the actual book when it came out except in the omnibus but I digress)

So Marie the omega is being taken advantage of at her nursing job and an alpha fires her for making sure he didn’t kill a patient. She then has to move back home to where her terrible brother lives. Personally I would have chosen literally anywhere else but I digress. Shes driving along and a biker club boxes her in and forces her car to the side of the road.
The bikers then drag her out of her car and force her to her knees after she tries to run one over who was brandishing a knife. She should have hit him with her car. They want her to lick the biker’s boots and she keeps thinking they’re going to fuck her on the side of the road. That’s not fucking. Say what it is. One of the alpha’s even says “I can make you suck my dick” … “I promise it’ll be better if you’re a willing participant.” Okay so we’re all on the same page that she’s an unwilling participant. Great. Please remember that.
In case you were wondering the “non-consensual themes” the book has as a trigger warning actually means rape. Marie’s alphas terrorized her on the side of a road and then raped her. If you’re going to write a book about it then say it with your whole chest. It’s not a “theme” it’s the entire act. But don’t worry her alphas didn’t let any of their club brothers cum on her when they were raping her so that makes it okay, right? What the fuck? What the actual fuck?
They leave her because the police come and she hides her stun gun and doesn’t mention being raped because she doesn’t want to do a rape kit. Thank goodness we have finally admitted what just happened was in fact rape because later we’re going to forget that.
Marie handled that whole situation better than I would because instead of murdering her alphas she just tried to reject them which she then couldn’t do because her alpha took that choice from her. Love that for her. Someone call Pack Mohan to come penis Picasso the whole pack.
The pack shows up at her new job and they go for breakfast then there’s a tiny will they won’t they but then Marie essentially just gives in to them completely despite all that they’ve done. Little to no groveling. They bought her a car. Real winners. They’re even nice enough to switch out her heat suppressants and her birth control. She basically ends up moving into their house so she’s not at the shelter anymore.
Motorcycle club things happen then Lore gets shot and oh my goodness is he dead?! (Fingers crossed since he’s a terrible alpha to a terrible pack)

This book wasn’t Jenn’s normal angst. I didn’t cry. I wasn’t even really that sad at any point. It just seemed off and forced. I wasn’t even sad for Marie over Lore. I was excited that he might die because he should. The “non-consensual experience” felt forced like it was just something to shock the readers and give the alphas a starting point to work from. I will admit Jenn’s books are written in this fashion most often but this starting point seemed written for the shock value alone. It wasn’t angst as much as just a cruel and brutal attack. Has Jenn run out of ideas that rape seems to be a good idea to her?

If Hasting’s book is even a little bit like this I will not be reading any more of the motorcycle books and will need to think long and hard about whether this author is someone I want to support ever again.

This is a terrible story and I regret supporting this book and its other full book.

[Kassie]

These little, short stories were so good.

Let's start with the first story
stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
Knot A Seconded Chance

This story is Olivia's story. It was so well done. I loved that she had a I don't give a F*CK about anything vibe. The beginning is how her life was in the beginning. But I am glad she escaped those nasty alphas. Now in her present life She first meets her scent matches at her new job. Aled is one of the twins who first meet him. He tells his brothers to reject her. She takes it well and it makes them wonder WHAT JUST HAPPENED. Well, they did it to save her from their father, well Gareth is their adopted brother who is a beta and when he finds out what they did, he go and takes her for himself. Well, I am glad he did, you can tell right away how much he wants her and will do anything to have her. Well let's just say, her story is a little dark and definitely will make you love and hate her men lol. I am glad she gets her happy ending.

Story 2 in this book
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️.5
To Catch an Omega

This is Orla's story and Harris, Trick and Noa. She has been in love with them for so long and she didn't want to let them know because she didn't want to ruin their plans to become a great band. Well, let's go about 6 years after they leave. Orla moved and has been doing it all on her own. Well, she is now a manager in a bar. Well, she goes into heat while in the middle of closing. Guess who finds her while wearing masks. Her alphas. This was another little great story.

Story 3 in the book
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
The Promise

This is Cian's story and holy 🥵🥵🥵 is his story just fire. I love Cian and I am 100% happy he gets his happy ending. Let's meet Kevin his omega and Morgan. Cian first saw Kevin at a event and knew he wanted him but couldn't find him for over a year. Well Cian saves Kevin from a beta and alpha who are trying to scam and all. Well, they hook up and let's just say it was sooooo hot. A couple months later, Kevin is going into heat, and he has been avoiding Cian and not answering his phone calls. So, Kevin goes to a heat clinic/spa, where we get Morgan and Cian into the same room with Kevin. All and all defiantly wanted more of their story because I didn't want it to end.

Story 4 in the book
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️.5
Knot Their Dancer

This story is about Roisin and her men. Her story is defiantly dark but I did absolutely love it. It was a good little read as well. I hated what she had to go through. I am glad she got to escape. I defiantly need more of her story. Even her men need a HEA lol

Story 5 in the book
Stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️.5
Knot A Possibility

This story is about Marie and her Alphas. Marie is a nurse who has had a rough time. Her story was really good. The fact that she is making her men work for it, is the best. I really enjoyed all of it.


All of these stories were just perfect. Jenn can write A story that will make you always want more.

10/10

This is about Wren, Everest, Ambrose, Flynn & Shaw.


Loved all these stories and now I need more from them all.

[Thebluelight]

I’ve started baking sourdough bread as a way to cope with Jenn’s books, it can be due to many things, stress, anxiety, anger, anticipation or even joy. But let’s be honest, it’s usually stress related, at this point we should all know how Jenn rolls! If you don’t, this is not the book to start with, go back to “knot my sin” and enjoy the emotional rollercoaster Jenn has perfected.

With that said this is how many I’ve been forced to make as a result of Jenn’s newest masterpiece:
Bread count: 6

I have no idea how to write a review for a collection of novellas. If I write how I normally do it would be ginormous, like 2k words long. So yeah, hang in there, this is gonna be an odd one.

Have you ever read about a side character and just asked, “how did you get here?” or “who hurt you?”. That’s what this book is all about, we finally get a sneak peek into their head, into their stories and know how they got here and where they’re going moving forward.

This collection of novellas is dark so make sure to check your triggers before reading and take care of yourself, you matter!

To me, this is a must read if you’ve read any book in the unhingedverse. Not only do we get all the extra juicy details we also get a heap of new brilliant characters, found my new favourite by the way, he’s so unhinged and perfect! This book is something we’ve been waiting for since the unhingedverse started, we finally get the details Jenn promised us and I couldn’t be more thrilled.. wait no, that’s a lie, if they all get full length books for each of them then that’s peak but you know what I mean, this collection is brilliant!

I hope you’ve all enjoyed this ride in the unhingedverse as much as I have, and although it’s time to say goodbye to this chapter, we still have so much left in the Jennverse to explore and I for one, will be here for every book, novella and teaser.

I had so many quotes saved from these novellas but something went wrong and they vanished. These are the only two I managed to find, enjoy!

"I solemnly swear that I'm not starving your mother, Cerenity," he says.
"We haven't been properly introduced yet, don't use my name," Cere sniffs.
"Well okay then," Gareth says.
Yeah, that's going to be interesting. I should make sure the knives and frying pans are hidden.

As Cian told me, fate breaks the plans we make for ourselves, and l've never been happier for it.

[Deloria Loketi]

The Forgotten
I absolutely LOVE Olivia in this book! I knew she had some strength to deal with what she did when Cerenity was born but maaaan! This story just made me absolutely LOVE her! She was so damn strong, sassy and a smart ass and I LOVED it! Gareth was everything and he should be protected at all costs! Lol the perfect but of unhinged and totally obsessed. The Alpha's on the other hand needed to get punched in the FACE! They eventually pull their heads out of their butts but still 🙄

Orla's story was short, spicy and actually really cute. It definitely has the miscommunication trope but they were younger and the story is so short that it is resolved quickly. I always wanted to know her story and this was the perfect little nugget that I needed! I do kind of wish I had gotten Mickey's too though 😅

Omg FINALLY!! Daddy Cian got his happily ever after! 🥹
I have been WAITING for this!
I love him so much and he deserves it! Not him beating the stuffing out of a future pack member though 🤣 somehow it just totally fits his life. I freaking LOVED getting more details on how he ended that see you next Tuesday Nancy though 😏 may she forever rot in the fiery pits!

Poor Roisin...there needs to be WAAAAY more groveling...lol I hope there's more to her story in the future 😏

Ok Marie's story is getting a whole book and I am HERE for it! I've wanted her story since we met her in Cerenity's book! And I also wanted Tommy to get his ass kicked for putting his hands on her! Brother or not that ish isn't ok! Of course her short story ended on a cliffhanger 😩 I'm completely invested and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

I waited so long for this and I've finally had the time to sit and enjoy it.
I love pretty much everything Jenn writes and this was no different. She writes strong omegas and unhinged characters and stories like nobody else 💗

I have loved all of Jenn's characters, especially the ones that support our MC"s in all of her stories and it is rather upsetting that sometimes for the ones that are really great (all of them) that we don't get more of a backstory/happily ever after for each of them. Well, BAM! Problem solved in this case. The Forgotten is a collection of novellas for some of the most beloved characters from the Unhindgedverse novels and while I am newer within this last year to all of Jenn's work and have not yet worked my way through her backlog, I was so happy to see that you don't necessarily need to know her entire backlog to understand everything that is happening in these shorter HEA's (although fair warning they are going to be slightly spoiler heavy, but for me, this is just motivation to get my butt in gear to read the rest of the stories I am missing). I was most excited to see Cian get his story in The Promise- let me tell you, this one was so much hotter than I could have ever imagined (and I imagine a lot) and it left me sweating more than one and needing multiple cold showers. I also loved that we got some sneak peaks into Jenn's minds for upcoming stories, which makes me really excited for the new year (Marie, I'm looking at your store and fingers crossed we get more of Roisin because that was the one I was really hoping would not end!) There is a wonderful collection of relationships, pairings, ages, etc. It was really nice to see some more mature in age stories (not just 20 somethings and end of high school) since I feel like a huge chunk of the stories that are out there for this universe focus more on the younger side of ages so it was refreshing to see that there was a wider range of ages. If you want to know more about your favorite supporting character- pick this up!

Have you ever wanted to know more about a side character? Have you ever wished they could be the main side character? Well that’s what The Forgotten offers. It’s a delightful collection of stories that give you closure and stories that whet your appetite for further books. A few of them are more or less prologues for full books in the future and won’t have a HEA in The Forgotten. This type of short story collective isn’t one that I’ve seen before, but I love it. I squealed every time I saw my favorite characters from the Unhingedverse. I loved seeing how new characters and old characters were woven into the universe like threads in a tapestry.

If you have not read ALL of the Unhingedverse/Twinverse novels, then this is going to be a big book of spoilers for you. This book is kind of like dessert. A little treat after the main books.

Each of these polycules (all contain MM) is unique and their journeys are very different. I liked some of the stories more than others, but to be honest, The Forgotten gets 5 stars for Olivia’s story alone. Not only is it so refreshing to see MMCs and FMCs in their late 40s-mid 50s, but Oliva’s path to healing and love is just so empowering and perfect for her. She’s thrown into familiar circumstances, but SHE gets to control the narrative this time.

Also 5 stars for Daddy Cian being even more swoony than usual and Tommy getting….well, you’ll see.

[Amy McIntire]

The Unhingedverse has been a very special world for me. If you’ve read any of my previous reviews ~ then you probably know why (hint: Broken Dreams). I had something rattling around in my head for a while, so in place of my usual sarcasm & “hey me likey”, I’m going to share it here, a public blessing, if you will.

Endings

Thank you, I guess, for endings.
For the awkward silences after the last word,
for the door that clicks shut a little too softly,
A whisper of pages being closed,
The ache of a life lived and a love lost.

Let us honor what’s over
without gilding it in false nostalgia or ironic detachment.
Let us cry a little, laugh a little,
and toast to the mess we made trying to survive, build, and stay.

And when the next beginning inevitably stumbles in,
looking lost and a little too eager,
help us open the door again,
building a new world,
a new Sin,
a new Fight,
or a Broken Dream.

Here’s to the inevitable book hangover,
and may it ache just as bad as the last,
may the Retribution feel just as sweet.

And may Nabu & Calliope
grant us the grace to let go,
so that we move on to our next
death at the hands of a bully,
unrequited love,
a fated match,
or a new found family.

And for the love of God: SOMEONE GET THAT TINY PIXIE A BAG OF GUMMY BEARS!
We have new universes to explore!

[Mel B.]

Sorry. No.

**SPOILERS/THOUGHTS/OPINIONS**

This is a collection of novellas following the “side characters” from Jenn Bullard’s Minnesota Mafia books. The first novella follows Olivia Quinn, Cerenity’s mother. All I had to do was read her novella to give this collection one star. I understand that Jenn Bullard’s books are dark and have lots of triggers, but I can’t accept the nature of Olivia’s alphas. It was unacceptable to me that they systematically rejected her and continued to behave deplorably. The fact that Garreth, the beta brother kidnapped her, and more or less guilt tripped her into sex was gross in my opinion. Then Olivia tries to kill herself, and two days later she’s using the alphas who rejected her to satisfy a heat spike…gross. The alphas are AWFUL!! Alfed is freaking GAY, and he and Garreth are in a relationship. It’s a twisted and totally ridiculous plot. I understand redemption arcs, but the characters have to be worth redeeming. The alphas in Olivia’s story are horrible, horrible characters, there is nothing redeemable about them! I can’t at all understand why the author would think that the reader would accept Olivia accepting them eventually. I am thoroughly eeked out by their disgusting nature, and I literally will not read anymore of this series based on how awful these characters are!

[sycokittykat - Stefanie]

For when you love a side character and needed more

OK so this is a collection of short stories that follow some of the side characters from Jenn's books. They are all spicy and filled with the angst and drama you expect from Jenn. Each story follows a different side character or characters that we've met in previous books.

Knot a Second Chance follows Cerenity's mom Olivia. Her story begins while she is pregnant and needs to escape.

To Catch an Omega is Orla's story. When her friends got signed She let them go so she wouldn't hold them back from there opportunities. Afterwards she disappeared and they spent a lot of time trying to find her again.

The Promise is Cian's story. His story starts with a hook-up and then fate decides how they'll come back together again and it's a doozy. You never know what might happen in the future.

Knot Their Dancer follows Roisin and her men. This one actually is more of a prequel and I can't wait to see the rest of their story.

Knot a possibility features Tommy's sister Marie and is also a prequel and I absolutely can't wait to read the full story.

There is a bonus story in the paperback or temporarily in the ebook caller a Day in the Life and its a fun day with Wren, Everest, Ambrose, Flynn and Shaw.

[Bernadine Jeremiah]

The Unhingedverse is my top tire series pick for Dark Omegaverse. Since the first book Knot My Sin I was enthralled by Wren's strength and resilience and the loved the dynamic of the two Omegas in the pack that absolutely stole my heart. Then we were introduced to Cerenity the fiercely resilent bat and pan swinging take not shit omega with her swoon worthy trio of Aplhas. Next was my girl Aisling "Being invisible is almost as much of a curse as having everyone stare."Aisling. And then finally the Kelly brothers got their Omega with and we got the power house of Quinn and Linus.

This whole series was a page-turner from the first chapter.

The Forgotten is a collection of Novellas showcasing all those great side characters in the Unhingedverse and we are treated to all those different characters POV'S.

Cian story was my most anticipated read and to keep this spoiler free all I am going to quote is the man himself "Fate breaks the plans we make for ourselves, "

These Novellas are dark omegaverse and do have sensitive themes

[Amber]

The Forgotten is a series of novellas featuring side characters from Jenn Bullard's Unhingedverse. I was so excited for these novellas because Jenn's side characters always pull me in and I always want more of them.

Knot a Second Chance featured Cerenity's mom, Olivia. I was so excited for her book and for her to get her HEA.

To Catch an Omega featured Orla who was a bartender. I loved this one so much and definitely would love to see more of her and her harem!

The Promise featured Cian. I have been waiting for Cian to get his HEA since Aisling's book. I absolutely love Cian and this novella just made me so happy for him.

Knot their Dancer featured Roisin who is a dancer. This novella leaves us hanging a little bit so I am excited to see more of these characters in the future.

Knot a Possibility features Tommy's sister, Marie. This novella definitely hooked me in and I can't wait for the full novel that is coming.

As with all of Jenn's books, make sure you check the trigger warnings and buckle up because these novellas will take you on a crazy ride!

[KnottyBookL0ver]

Finally!

Olivia has such a rough road, I wanted to cry more than once throughout her journey. I loved Gareth from the get go, and everything he does for O. I would not be opposed to more of their story one day! (Or any of these!)
Orla and her guys have one of the sweetest little stories I think I have read from Jenn. (Yes, I know they had a dark little scene, but still!)
CIAN!!! I am so beyond excited to finally get Cian's pack story! I love everything about Cian, Kevin, and Morgan, and it was amazing to see the full fate circle their journeys traveled.
Seeing Marie again was great. She really did get the pain brother in Tommy. Lore, Storm, and Wilder have SO much work to do to make up for their mistakes, and I cannot wait for the MC book to come out. Ms Jenn...you would do that to us in a book like this, wouldn't you??
These stories flowed really well, and the spice was just right for the length of each story. Jenn always brings the perfect blend of plot, spice, and trauma. This book is no different.

[Jordan Fiest]

The Forgotten is part of the Unhingedverse Series.

This is a collection of short stories about some of the characters we have met along the way who deserve their own HEA.

Knot A Second Chance is all about Olivia and how she is coping with everything that happened with her. Standing ovation to Gareth for being the best of the guys. He was always protective and caring about Olivia. Loved him!

To Catch An Omega is getting a second chance at love for Orla.

The Promise is a delicious MMM read.

Knot Their Dancer is about Roisin and everything she has to go through to survive another day. This one is a bit of the dark one in the bunch. It also seems to fuel as a prequel for her story.

Knot A Possibility has some dark moments in it. This is a prequel for a new series.

Bonus Story only available in the paperback. This is just a bonus epilogue for some of the characters in the series.

[Deborah]

Favourite story: Knot a Second Chance, closely followed by Knot a Possibility ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for both
Favourite character: it’s got to be Gareth, from Knot a Second Chance, he is my kind of crazy 🤪🤪
Spiciest story: The Promise, finally it’s Cian’s turn to find his omega 😍😍😍
Darkest story: Knot a Second Chance 💀💀💀💀 and the beginning of Knot a Possibility 💀💀💀
Lightest story: they’re all pretty dark but the lightest is probably Cian’s story, The Promise 🤩🤩🤩 plus Nancy deserved it!
Story that made me want more: Knot their Dancer, dark but with swoon worthy alphas, and Knot a Possibility, which after that ending, Marie is going to flip 🤬🤬🤬
Most hated character: it’s a close call between Dylan from Knot a Second Chance and Cathal from Knot their Dancer. Neither are winning any awards for father of the year, but I think Dylan wins this one 😤🤬😤🤬
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌶️🌶️🌶️

[Kasey Bridges]

This is about short stories in a novella about the side/support characters throughout the forbidden verse/hen verse books
We meet some omegas from the series who may have had one or two lines and even a few characters (cian) who were very prominent in the books but never got their own story. Jenn gives us a look at the other side, the ones who weren’t vying for attention from their packs, or napped by the enemy.

I’ve loved being able to see more about these characters and see that they finally get their endings. Whether it be great, sad or just plain normal, we get to hear how their stories end.

Some we may even see in the future too!
The bonus chapter was amazing because we get to go back to the first books pack (Knot my sin), and see more of them along with the other packs.
I loved every single story and can’t wait for what’s next in the Jennverse!
5/5 LOVED!!!

[Danielle Giordano]

I love the whole idea of this book. In most books I read, there is at least one side character that I just LOVE and I'd always hope to get to read their story. Well, Jenn did just that for us!! Some of our favorite side characters from her books have their very own story in this collection of novellas. They may be short, but we still get to see more of them, so it makes me happy. Cian is one of my favorite characters of Jenn's (like, one of my favorite of all of her characters, including the main characters) so getting to read his story absolutely made my day! I will never get enough of him. Jenn never disappoints (she just likes to make us really mad sometimes LOL). My only complaint is that I want more Cian, but that's because I could probably read an entire series about him and still want more. Jenn just knows how to write the perfect characters, so that's not surprising.

[McKenzie Dew]

The Forgotten by Jenn Bullard is a really fun collection of novellas that focuses on side characters from her other books. I loved getting to see characters like Orla, Cian, and Olivia finally have their own stories. Each novella has its own vibe, but they all fit together and give more depth to the world Jenn has already built.
The book mixes dark moments, romance, and found family in a way that keeps you wanting more. Even though these characters weren’t the main focus before, they all feel important here, and their stories are emotional, dramatic, and really engaging. If you like omegaverse stories or you’ve read Jenn’s other books, this is a great addition because it gives you more of the characters you didn’t want to let go of.
Overall, I really enjoyed it and now I want even more stories about all of them.

[Margareth Davis]

Another banger by that mean lil pixie.

The Forgotten by Jenn Bullard is an emotionally gripping, character-driven story that lingers long after you close the book. Bullard creates a world filled with tension, mystery, and heart, all while crafting characters who feel painfully real.
What stood out most to me was the way she explores memory, identity, and the weight of the past. Each chapter pulled me deeper into the plot, and the pacing kept me constantly wanting to read “just one more page.” The emotional moments hit hard, and the revelations were genuinely satisfying.

If you enjoy books that blend suspense with rich character development and a touch of vulnerability, The Forgotten is absolutely worth reading. Jenn Bullard delivers a story that is haunting, beautifully written, and impossible to forget.

I loved reading the short little snippets in this collection. We get to see a little bit of after the main series for characters who don't necessarily need to have entire stories, but who we fell in love with. Some of these have a happily ever after, some may not, but every one of them shows a little bit more personality for the world. Getting a tiny glimpse of some upcoming work was great, I'm going to be waiting with bated breath to continue at least one of these, hoping every time I see a post it'll be a release date moved up. Jenn does such a good job of making the world feel cohesive even across different series. As always check your triggers just because they are short does not mean that the trauma was left out.

All those side characters we wonder about finally have their story....

A dark Omegaverse series coming to an end. These stories are all captivating and healing. The best way to say goodbye. We have Olivia’s rocky start to a beautiful well deserved happy ever after. Then we have rockstar dreams come true with Orla's happy ending. Cain comes swaggering in to the page with his Daddy vibes. Roison brings her story to the page with a beautiful dance. Then finally Marie story crashes on to the page as the last read in this anthology. And an end to Unhingedverse series but not too Jenn's omegaverse shenanigans. We can definitely expect more unhinged unaliving, knots and worshipping their omegas in Knotted Anarchy MC.

The Forgotten By Jenn Bullard ARC Review

Olivia, was a strong woman who went through terrible things and being rejected and abused by her pack in the beginning. I enjoyed her feistiness and how strong she was dealing with another packs rejection and them earning her forgiveness for rejecting her.

I felt like they earned their forgiveness and this was a great read! It felt like something that was out of this world it was beautifully written and reading about what her past alphas did to her was terrible and I really enjoyed reading about how strong she was.

I feel like the pack was fantastic for Olivia and how they treated at the start was terrible then after she came to be with them they created something phenomenal and I couldn’t stop loving this and enjoying the ending.

What a collection of Novellas. We were able to see how some of our loved but maybe not right in the front at all times characters get a more of their stories told. One novella was an intro to a whole new series that I know I can't wait to read. The last one filled my heart with the most joy. A gathering of many loved characters, taking place after one of the this novellas in this collection.

The stories have heart, they aren't easy to read in the least, but life is messy. I know one day, these characters and this universe might come to its end, but until then, I am going to enjoy every minute.

Warning, there is a lot of content and trigger warnings, please read each before you go into the stories.

I’m not over the cliffy lmaooo

So before i get into Knot your permission it was advised to read the story in this book first. I’ve done that and you’ve got my blood pressure HIGH! LORE GOOD AND WELL BETTER BE OK! I can’t take heartbreak like this ma’am! Overall i love that they are trying to remedy how they treated Marie from their first encounter to this one. You can definitely see some character development and growth within these few chapter! Marie is heavily independent and not easily influenced especially with how she’s wanting things to go. To be wary with this type of pack is the appropriate approach because you never know! So now I’m excited and worried to get into knot your permission! Jenn never misses for me so I’m really excited!

The Forgotten is a collection of novellas by Jenn Bullard telling the stories of some of the 'side characters' from the Unhingedverse series, the ones that have piqued your interest and you couldn't help but wonder what their story was or what would happen to them.

They may be shorter stories but they are definitely not lesser. They will give you all the feels, angst and trauma you would normally expect to come with reading a book by Jenn Bullard.

Some have a happy ending, some have a happy for now, ...... and some don't..... so be warned.

As usual buckle up and make all your usual safety preparations and enjoy the ride.

Highly recommended.

This book is a collection of short novellas that follow some of the supporting characters that we have met in prior books in this series. So you do need to read those books before diving into this collection of stories. I have loved every story and was sad when I finished the last one. As per common place in this series, you just never know what is going to happen and what the final outcome will look like. But, the ride that you are taken on is so worth it. I loved every juicy bit of this book.
