"Hold and defend — that's my job as thirteen.”
You guys… I thought this was going to be an overhyped book. It deserves every 5 star rating it has; this was incredible.
I’m having a hard time with this review because this is one of those books where it feels impossible to break it down. You just need to experience it for yourself. The friendships and sibling love told by Chloe Walsh are unrivaled. I’ve never wanted to be part of a group of friends so bad, all just to be another protector for lit ...more

I listened to Binding 13 on audible because I really wanted to hear the Irish accents and I’m so glad I did, the dual pov narrators were absolutely brilliant. They truly brought this story to life and magnified the words and emotions in this. 100% recommend the Audible.
As for the story, I consider this and the second book Keeping 13 god-tier books. This story shattered my heart into pieces and then glued it all back together again. I cried, laughed, got upset, took comfort, and fell in love wit ...more

okay was going to try to continue but I really really cannot and don’t really want to waste my time so it’s a DNF @ 56% bc I lowkey want to gauge my eyes out not only at how gross this book is but also at everyone who is obsessed with it?????? 4.44 stars being the average rating is actually the most wild thing I’ve heard in a long time and my jaw is on the floor

i have absolutely no words apart from wow. i didn't expect to like this book as much as i did. every character is written in so much detail which just makes the book so so good and makes you love the characters even more. i love johnny so much as a character and just how he was as a person, the most perfect boy. he cared so much for shannon and would do anything for her. i felt so bad for shannon, just want to wrap her up in a blanket and protect her from the world. it got a bit annoying when th

At first, I wasn’t sure I’d finish the book—I was seriously considering DNF-ing it. But the deeper I got into the story, the more I found myself turning page after page, curious to see how everything would unfold. Reading about (view spoiler) isn’t something I enjoy, so some scenes were hard to get through. Despite that, the book was addictive—I couldn’t put it down. Now, I’m dreading the idea of diving into a second book that’s just as long, but I think it will be
