Mister Impossible

edit on 03/09/21: i dont even think this is a bad book, i just cant imagine anyone rereading this for fun. how can you write a book so impossible to enjoy? i keep thinking about it and i can't feel anything but negative emotions, its terrible

things i liked:
- jordan and matthew's relationship

things i disliked:
- everything else

i guess this trilogy is just not what i was expecting. i got so excited when i found out a series about one of my all-time favorite characters was coming out, but it barely feels like a book about ronan. all i wanted was to see the lynch brothers together, working out their life-long issues while trying to live in this dream shitshow they've gotten themselves into. what did i get instead? two phone conversations and one (1) scene where ronan and declan stand in the same room. i was so frustrated all the time, seeing declan and Matthew together getting all the much-needed relationship development while ronan was away in the most boring mission ever with the most annoying character I've ever read about.

and the ending, bryde waking up while ronan is still asleep. if the third book is about bryde, if ronan stays asleep as if //he// is the dream, i don't think i'm gonna be able to get through it. I haven't HATED a character so much in SO LONG.

i won't even talk about adam because it feels like maggie stiefvater herself doesn't even want to write about him or his relationship with ronan.

i could complain about so many more things, but i'm pissed off and tired. this book was 300 pages long and 200 pages of it were boring as hell. that's all.
