"and most of all i was sick of wanting her
and hating her all at once"

I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT. THEIR ORDER.
I CALLED IT. IT'S PERFECT.

god this book was awfully good. the trial concept of the book reminded me of harry potter & the goblet of fire but it sure was entertaining and exciting!!

tory's and caleb's chasing and catching game? him basically begging her to pay him attention? god it's all just so thrilling and the tension, guys i'm not kidding. it's amazing. i love to see darius still being jealous of them. he deserves it 🤭

"i only had my eyes set on one girl tonight and the joke
of it all was that i knew she wouldn't be looking back"

jealous trope at its finest, i promise. the buildup between darius and tory truly is unmatched, getting closer, then hating each other again and again and again. so good. i'm basically living off torydarius crumbs 😤

"maybe i've already got plans wednesday" i said
"yeah, you do. with me."

the tension [!!!] between orion and darcy.. it’s unbearable please put me out of my misery and kiss already. they're giving rose and dimitri and i‘m not complaining

"i can't think straight around you"

we also have a nightmare trope in this book 💗💘💕💞

the tension!! suspense!! excitement!! thrill!! whatever you want to call it. it's so captivating 😭😭

overall there were some cringey scenes and seth's behavior really was annoying sometimes with all this wolfy alpha thing going on. also, the amount of times tory said dude? please stop 🫡 there are so many wattpad-y things going on but i swear in the best way possible

"she was the one girl i shouldn’t want, the one i couldn’t have, the one i didn’t need. and yet i did"

— god i cannot wait to go on with the series. it has crack in it. there is no other explanation. insane
