Ian baby 😭😭😭

51% “It was tangible proof that my father was monster and man, and if he, of all people, could be both, then maybe I could be both too.”

Sigh 😭

"Every time you hurt me, I think, 'This has to be the cruelest...'" Damn, I can feel Ian's pain. It's heartbreaking. The worst part is — at least I can glimpse why Alek is the way he is. His father murdering his favorite person was devastating. But poor Ian doesn't have a clue... Sometimes one has to own their pain and move on, but I'm really rooting for them.

ngl so far I'm thoroughly enjoying the book's writing style. There's a richness and depth to the language that's captivating. The themes resonate as well, particularly the exploration of rejection and the possibility of second chances. Ugh... the narrative is just so engaging, it evokes a mix of emotions that keeps me invested in the MCs' journeys.
