Goodreads review by Becca on January 14, 2022

Goodreads review by Mara on October 18, 2022

Gotta say, a lot of the reviews on this book do NOT pass the vibe check.

Keep in mind this book is basically the second half of the story begun in book 1; the story being split into two books is al......more
