Tropes: – found family – addicts – academic rivals – age gap – grumpy x sunshine
I really thought after Long Way Down there was nothing more to tell. I‘ve never been more happy to be wrong. This book has over 700 pages, and I still want more. Though to be fair, this book is perfect the way it is. And this time there are all 6 POVs (the only ones missing, regarding POVs that is, are Willow and Garrison, but I‘ve got their perspectives in the Bad Reputation duet which overlaps with Some Kind of Perfect, so I‘m not complaining) The thing is, all POVs are on point, and you can truly see the character growth that occurred until the first Addicted book. Throughout the series, I often felt like the main focus is on Lily and Lo, and don‘t get me wrong, I love them, but they have 5 books while Rose and Connor as well as Daisy and Ryke just have 2 each, it‘s a little bit unfair. So I really like that in this book they all equally get attention. It‘s truly the perfect ending in my opinion (and so re–read worthy!) However, there are always some that stick out to me more than others, and in this case it‘s the Cobalt empire. So, if I don‘t get at least one book for each Cobalt kid, I‘ll scream. I admire the way Rose and Connor raise their children (if I ever have one myself, and that‘s a very big IF, these two will be my role models) I think that especially shows when they want to explain where there popularity comes from to Jane and Charlie, while Daisy, Ryke, Lily and Lo are in complete and utter denial, like the kids couldn‘t find out if they tried at a certain age. That reminds me of a quote of Damon Torrance: “You teach your daughter to hide in everyone else‘s world and I‘ll teach mine everyone else exists in her.“ So, if anything, this proofs once more why Rose and Connor are my favorites. There are so many lovely moments with their children and without them. 5/5⭐️ 🌶️🌶️/5
