What's up with these "Something of Something and Something" YA titles that have become strangely popular lately? It is becoming extremely annoying. How about we become original for once?
Somebody did it and it was nice. No need for everyone to do the same now! This is ridiculous!

This book was hard to put down, I wanted to keep reading to know what happened to each of the characters. I love Lei but was even more so impressed by Wren, she’s such a badass in the book and she is also so warm and supportive. All the feels. I love the connection that builds between the two girls and loved that they had each other during dark times. Looking forward to continuing the series.
