Review:
This book was like a rollercoster ride, let me tell ya. I don't know if this is Redmerski's best work but I enjoyed it. Redmerski really did a good job with describing a persons thoughts and actions when there suffering from a bipolar disease and depression. Blay's mood swings really made sens when we found that out.
I don't know if I love blay. I don't have anything against people with mental diseases but her fear of going to prison seems so irrational and over the top for me and I just didn't understand. Finding out she was bipolar explained a lot for me but I couldn't love her at that point.
I really like elais and I love the devotion he has for her. Sometimes it seemed suffocating to me. But maybe it seems that way to me because I have commitment fear. But still it was really inspiring to see that and I admire that. It seems exhausting for elais but it shows how much he loves blay and proves that he will really do anything for her.
I do think Blay and Elais made a very stupid decision by running away. I get that Elais was trying to protect her but it was a bad choice. It made everything worse. I don't know what I would have done in Elais position. And I get that he was trying to protect blay and I love him for that.
The both of them were stupid and made bad decisions but the grew enormously after that and i'm happy with the ending
I loved that cameryn and andrew made an appearance in the book. I was smiling like an idiot. I couldn't remember elais and blay and the others in Cameryn and Andrews book but I like that they were in it.
I did have trouble's with remembering all the side characters. That might have something to do with me sucking at remembering people's names tho haha.
