Definitely doesn’t draw me in as quickly as the first 2 in the series, but I want good things for Iris and I’ve put off reading this long enough 😂

So I paused on this for a while because the pacing was a bit dragging and the name drops were just piling up. I appreciate him as a figure but I think honestly I was too insecure and sensitive about myself to listen for a bit. But now I’m back in it and feeling inspired. The pacing has somewhat improved but the lessons are great.

This is craaaazy so far

I tried not to have too many expectations, but man, does it drag on…

Really hard to put down. I’m also wondering if I should’ve read the previous in this series…but I’m managing ok I think lol

UM but also HUH

I’d say I’m embarrassed at how fast I’m ripping through this but wow. I’m gagged. And I’m still waiting for things to blow up! Girl…mess.

I technically started this yesterday but that’s neither here nor there cause I haven’t been able to stop until like…now. It’s not groundbreaking and it totally starts with spice but man the drama is just so 🫢💀 ridiculous I can’t not see this through. Like WHAT. I can’t even fathom sksks this is so messyyyyyy

I get whiplash between the explicit retellings and the rich history of Atlanta and NYC in the 70s/80s

Tina :(

He’s such a great storyteller. I love the flips from telling his story to explaining notable pop culture references.

That damn sheriff 🤬

Whoa

Ugh. Yeah I need a physical copy. It’s just so good. I want to be able to refer to it freely any chance I get.

Wow the ✨drama✨ of it all. I’m glad I started this so soon cause now I’m really appreciating the character development of Astrid. I mean I did towards the end of the last book but I’m finding her even more understandable and relatable now.

Okay okay so far I like this plot a little better…and I figured I might as well continue this series while the characters and their stories are still fresh 🤣👀

Just. Gah. So good. So many thoughts and themes that I’ve thought or wondered about being addressed in such an intimate way.

Welp…No turning back now for those 2 🌶️✨ LOL

A bit predictable but hey, sometimes that nice lol no stress just vibes~

Funny so far, the interchangeable names bit from Delilah is classic 😂
