Yeah, fuck it. Here's five stars. Fucking objectively probably not worth it, but I ran out of fucks to give (beside the spoken ones, I have plenty of those left) about twenty tissues ago. I knew when I started this that I was gonna lie in my bed with my cold, and knowingly, willingly submit to being hurt for the duration of this book. I care deeply about all of these people and I have projected the shit onto the sibling moments and I have spent (and for once in my life I don't think this is hyperbole) HALF THIS BOOK CRYING. Yes, it's a little overwritten and yes, repetition as a writing tool is used until we were beating a dead horse, BUT I DO NOT CARE!!! IT WORKED FOR ME, SUE ME!!! It tied everything together in the most kitschy, melodramatic way imaginable (DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE VERY LAST CHAPTER) AND I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY!! The way it made the journey of all books reflect in the plot had me in a chokehold. THE LONGING I FEEL FOR SUCH INTENSE FOUND FAMILY! MY GODS!! Chris and Tanner?! ICONS! The first third was SO INTENSE, the second one offered SUCH REPRIEVE only for the third to deliver THE BIGGEST SUCKERPUNCH! Could it be said that the transitions from one into the other weren't the smoothest? Sure, SO WHAT?! THE SIBLING BANTER WAS INCOMPARABLE! I LOVED THIS. FUCK. CNs are pretty much the usual: physical and mental (I guess?) violence, murder, parental abuse, the most lost thought-himself-straight guy ever, death, grief, guns SPOILERS AHEAD I SWEAR TO GOD THE "MEETING THOMAS BENNETT ON THE BRINK OF DEATH" MOMENTS GOT ME EVERY SINGLE FUCKING TIME AND I AM NOT OKAY, YOU HEAR ME??? BOTH OF THOSE LETTERS RIPPED MY HEART OUT, TRAMPLED IT FOR GOOD MEASURE AND LEFT ME IN THE DIRT. HOW DOES THIS EXPLORE THE FALLIBILITY OF FATHERS SO MUCH AND STILL FIND ROOM FOR LOVING THEM??? ABOLISH THE MONARCHY, WHY DON'T YOU MOTHERF*****. "IF YOU COULD CALL ME FATHER" AND THEN HE DID, I AM NOT OKAY!!! [very, very evidently, lol]
Der bisher letzte Teil der Reihe und das Abschiednehmen fällt mir schwer. Ich hätte sehr gerne mehr davon. Wie wäre es z.B. mit "Sistersong" - ich würde das sowas von lesen! Eigentlich will ich auch gar nicht weg aus Green Creek. Mir gefällt es dort. Ich sehe schon, dass ich die Reihe irgendwann wieder lesen muss, einfach weil sie so schön ist und mir die Figuren so viel bedeuten.
