I didn't think I was going to love this book like I did. and the ending OMG. I need book 2 now. Staying alive would be a lot easier if Violet didn't have a target on her back for not only being ‘small and frail' but the daughter of the woman responsible for the deaths of many cadet's traitorous parents.

There's something about the way that Angelina M. Lopez writes her female main characters that really just speaks to me. They are messy and falling apart, don't have all their shit together. I loved the couple and build to them. The tension and longing was strong. 

When I read this book I had a bad news. So at first I was not going to finish it but I did and I am happy I did.  It's impossible to put into words exactly how this book made me feel. It was one of the most heartbreaking yet beautiful love stories that I had reading. 

I love this book with a plus size Latina woman who doesn't hate herself because she's fat. And Gabe parents is something I try to been with my son. To read about Gabe and how is parents show him how to be a better person. This book has positive Latine representation that I know we as a community need. It has a solid couple who are self-aware enough to be good, supportive partners, friends, and siblings. It has a positive bro group and found family. 

This was a cute book. Is what I needed to read on a bad day. I love Garlic & Carrot relationship.  This book uses inclusive language, simple sentences, cute illustrations that is perfect for early readers.
