just found out we live in a world where daisy jones and the six don't exist and we can't actually listen to their music....shocked and upset to say the least.
Jesus Christ. I can't believe I actually finished this. My only remaining braincell is barely hanging on at this point.
Interesting themes and plot, boring and confusing execution. The writing is beautiful and very carefully done, if only the author had been that rigorous with all the other aspects of the book...

ridiculously funny and absolutely chaotic; but i think it dragged a little bit too long and CHRIST was charlie annoying. breathe if you agree.

A painfully honest and incredibly well-written book. Definitely one of the best books I've ever read and a must-read for everyone. Just amazing.
not nearly as good as saga but still really interesting and enjoyable. also can we talk about the colors??????? god
A mess. I was really looking forward to reading this after finishing Vicious — which earned a 5 star rating from me — but unfortunately this one was just beyond boring. I read Vicious in like 2 seconds and it took me months to finish this one.
The absence of a plot and my lack of interest for all these new characters Victoria forcefully shoved down our throats made it really hard for me to continue reading. The real main characters were reduced to cliches and had little to no character development, it didn't even feel like the same characters I've learned to love from the first book. I really liked that we got to know more about Eli's backstory, but other than that I don't have much more to praise.
It only starts getting better towards the end when the action picks up and we actually see a glint of a plot but it all falls flat with that incredibly vague ending. I've loved everything I've read by Victoria but this one was just a huge disappointment.
