Asia

3/5

I was so excited for this book but it disappointed me. I disliked Elliot and didn't enjoy their destructive relationship. I wasn't fan of him saying Our Father prayer every time he had sex with Peggy. And his devotion to Catholicism was almost fanatic, I wanted to shake hima nd yell "you're not a priest!".

Is this how Catholicism is likke in America? So glad I live in Europe if that's the case.

But then he started to grow and stopped using his religion as a crutch anymore and I was starting enjoying myself, what with Elliot and Peggy, Alice and Kyle... And then the ending. That damned ending.

1) I hate public love confessions and public proposals and this book had both.

and 2) I disliked that Peggy didn't say goodbye to her siblings and didn't say whether or not she would nbe in New York. Nothing, zero, zip, nada. They just left as if they couldn't wait until they ditch her.

And I disliked how Sage never actually answered Peggy's question about her or her family at all. Some friend that was.

All in all, this book was disappointing for me. Hopefully, the last one will be much better.
