Aaron motherfucking Warner.
I feel like nothing happened in this book aside from the relationship drama. It was really slow. I mean the actual plot happened when the book was nearing its end and that too was super rushed. I just wanna know, why?
This is supposed to be a dystopian novel, yet it focuses more on the romance. I like characters-driven plot but I want something to fucking happen that moves the plot forward!
Now about the characters, Juliette has grown a lot since the last book, that's what I feel. She has become more mature and calm and she knows how to handle the situations way better than she did before. I was proud of her when she stood up for herself against Adam. I was proud that she had turned from a whiny weak little girl to a fierce, powerful woman who knows her worth. God I'm so glad.
Kenji is always the best. I love him. I love him with all my heart. I love the friendship between Juliette and Kenji. Them being bestfriends is my therapy. It makes me giggle and I so want to have a friend like Kenji.
Now I don't have to say anything about Warner. He was the plot. I liked how the things are going between him and Juliette. He's way better than Adam. No, Adam doesn't even compare. Everybody wants someone like Aaron Warner I know.
Adam made me hate him even more than I hated him already. Him being a bitch, forcing Juliette, putting her down just because she was interested in Warner and then telling her to drop dead, I was infuriated. He literally went insane and I was sick of that drama because it was stretched a lot. And he just couldn't get it. Such a whiny piece of shit.
Now I liked that this book didn't have nonsensical metaphors in it. But I still think that the military aspect and dystopian aspect of this world is poorly done. It's supposed to be the main plot but it's not. We're supposed to see plot going on but what we get is the dramatic brawl between a girl who finally starts to stand up on her feet and a boy who just can't believe that the girl can be independent and not a damsel in distress. The ending was dramatic and rushed. It felt like a poor Marvel scene of Avengers being assembled.
I liked this book at times, I laughed and was excited and was rooting for Aaron and Juliette but there were still bad things. I've also rated Unravel me 3 stars and this book was better than Unravel me but doesn't deserve a 4 star rating from me.
