super fun but the characters and their behaviour are kinda inconsistent??? one second they're acting like children and then the other they're wiser beyond their age idk

OK I GET IT. I GET WHY EVERYONE'S LOSING THEIR MINDS.
To be fair, it started of very weak for me, but as I kept on reading I was getting gradually more invested until I lost all of my hair at the POV switch; then I knew Stephanie COOKED. She let the lil plot twist simmer and I wasn't even mad for that. Wasn't even mad at Jacks doing almost a whole 180. He is HIM. I might give blond men a chance now.
This book reminds me of that one horse drawing where one half is extraordinary drawn whereas the other is just scribbled. The concept the author's explaining and building around the characters abilities is very interesting, yet I'm baffled by how the characters are written. One aspect of them is amazing and then they open their mouth; what gives them depth is their abilities, not their personality, cause if that's the case they'd be cardboard. There's almost nothing there (save for a couple of characters which, unfortunately, is not enough).
The plot remains the sole interesting and well thought through part, although the climax of the book was somewhat underwhelming. I will, however, continue on with the series only because I'm curious enough about the plot.
Loved the universe and really enjoyed the no romance aspect of the book; however the ending left me a little bit unsatisfied. Overall, this was an exciting read.

The worldbuilding is very much my cup of tea, but I felt that every single scene was very much rushed and underdeveloped - we were jumping from scene to scene in just a few pages. Still, I'm continuing cause I can't leave a story unfinished.
Znate da je knjiga dobra kada u isto vreme može da vas nasmeje i rasplače. Dobro, možda malo više rasplače. Ne volim a i retko plačem; duša valja, mislim da mi je ovo i bilo potrebno. Zaista veoma lepa knjiga.
a widowed elderly woman deludes herself into solving a murder and kills her dog in the process. didn't exactly see the point of it all but hey serbian rep !!
A little disappointing that the main plot of the book is literally 1 chapter long. Very atmospheric and with good character chemistry though; Wes is the cutest.
I don't think I've read a worst sequel to a book ever. The plot was dull, the plot twists duller. Literally nothing was happening throughout the whole book except maybe at the last quarter. The writing was cringier than in the first book. Safe to say I hated it.
This book made several points,,,, bruh it's 1am and it left me questioning myself. I can't believe how much I'm seeing myself in the main character. I'm so freaked out I can't even write a decent review; safe to say I LOVED it. And the humor - fucking finally. Some good fucking food.
Reading this book's like you're watching people take lsd and trip while you're being completely sober
