Already don’t like “Tella.” Stupid name but also opening scene she is sneaking around with a guy the town is all over and giggling about it then also doesn’t like that her sister chose a boyfriend she has no reason to dislike and also Scarlet says Tella is always stealing her pretty things.

I am not at all interested in Jacks with anyone but Eva but want to understand him more by book 3.

Reading to better understand Jacks.

This is just sex in fairy land.

Too graphic and smutty - and a virgin wants to be choked and uses words like cock? Lol. Prefer YA vanilla romances.

I hate that they call her a creature.

Way too much cock and terrible thing in this book.

Wasnt expecting a porno… really not something I care to read, but guess I’ll skip those scenes.

Because why the fuck not is a great intro.

While waiting on Caraval.

And it struck her how intimate words could be, how they could be spoken only once, for only one person, and they would never be heard again, they would disappear like a moment, gone almost as soon as you realized they were there.

But Time had seen the young woman and fallen instantly in love. And so, instead of landing in the future or finding herself in the past, the young woman continued to fall through time. She fell and fell and fell, trapped by Time until the end of Time.

When she was a child, her mother had once told her a story about a young woman who’d been playing hide-and-seek in a forest with her love. The young woman had been running through the trees, searching for a place to hide, when she’d fallen through a crack in time. It was just a tiny crack, a hairline fissure that should have plopped the young woman a few seconds into the future—or perhaps into the past.

“You can pretend that I’m still Jacks of the Hollow and that you want to be mine.”

Evangeline’s heart stopped. She searched Jacks’s eyes, but all she saw was darkness, and all she felt was the press of his hands. He held on to her the way a person might grasp the edge of a cliff, knowing once they let go, there was no taking hold again.

He just looked at her, at the remaining blood still on her lips and the dried tears staining her cheeks. “I swear this is what I really want.” He spoke each word like a vow. “I want to erase every moment you and I have spent together, every word you’ve said to me, and every time I’ve touched you, because if I don’t, I’ll kill you, just like I killed the Fox.”

“If you really believe this is what you want, then you’re lying to yourself.” “I’m not lying to myself,” Jacks snarled. “Then tell me this is what you truly want. Swear you want this more than anything else and I’ll never mention it again.” Jacks grabbed her by the shoulders and looked directly into her eyes. For a minute, he didn’t speak.

The Fate was every tear that anyone had ever shed for lost love. He was pain given form.

“I don’t want a different ending,” Jacks said flatly. “I just want you to leave.”


To save her.

Author says he worked his jaw way too much.

He stared out the frosted window as if he wished the night were already over and the past were already changed. Evangeline wished he’d have. Page 384.

The book is full of double meanings.

Everything Jacks says, Eva hears as we are meant to believe things at first glance but the second reading it is obvious that he means something else.

When she asks why he would go back in time for a girl who doesn’t love him, he isn’t going back for Donatella but for Eva, who says she doesn’t love him also.
