I’m so into this right now I lowkey have to keep reminding myself that these are VICARIOUS feelings from a FICTIONAL story. Like chill the fuck out sensitive little snowflake. I feel the threads interweaving and from what I understand we’re working up to massive emotional damage and a DIABOLICAL cliffy. Also I fucking HATE Odessa’s family.😤

I’m stalled out at chapter 42 because I am so anxious about the upcoming emotional damage everyone’s been talking about on bookstagram. I’m not ready! The new POV‘s has been a wonderful addition to this sequel to SOS but I am so afraid of how this is gonna play out for these alternate POV’s.

Jeezus, the way I DRAGGED my feet to start this, despite the book world raving, you’d think I didn’t listen to SoS 2x for the vibes alone. I really enjoyed SoS, obviously enough to listen to it twice, but TBH I thought it was just entertaining, not mind blowing. However, I hear this one is God tier and DP is a mastermind and I’m going to need a Costco size box of tissue. FOMO is a real thing, so here I go.
