My Review

I clearly didn't expect that i would like this story when I started reading this book blindly. I loved Mina and Oliver so much that I could feel their pull and attraction when their worlds collided, when they first met.

Oliver and Mina's story starts in the same school together and in the same class, they both feel an instant connection towards each other from the beginning and that i could really feel throughout the book, there are also some instances where I felt anger towards Mina for not understanding Oliver and her mom when life started becoming dangerous to her and she started kinda acting out because of it, i know that she is trying her best to be the perfect daughter and perfect friend to her best friend Nyah, but the incident in the alley really affected her and she just wanted to live her normal life that's all.

Towards the end of the book, when they both started having real feelings and having Oliver professed his love for her, things were starting to look good for both of them but the end totally and really changed it for me. My heart broke for both of them especially Oliver for going through so much in his life and finally finding his trust and anchor with Mina, whereas Mina's life has turned completely upside down, and I know that it's gonna be really messy for both of them. Can't wait to read book 2!

Thank you @emiliaares for writing this book, I was totally immersed with ur characters and their world.

Much Love
