This did not start off well, and it's all Clara's fault and her childish obsession with Tucker. She just won't stop going on about him, consequences be damned, even so much as distracting her from the glaringly obvious subject of her new vision. It was just so unbearable to read, until finally (although sadly) she realises who the true object of her vision is, and we can finally move on from Tucker. This is not to say I don't like Tucker as a character, I think he's great. It's just Clara's compulsive selfishness when it comes to him, it makes her so unlikable.
When she finally gives herself the chance to think about anything else, we get an insight into all the other characters and an actually decent story. I just can't rate this higher than a 3, due to how this started off. Genuinely intrigued for the next book, as it looks like Tucker will be out, at least for the first few chapters, so I'm curious to see how that goes.

Had to keep reminding myself Clara was a teenager to account for how selfish she acted throughout most of this book. Otherwise it makes no sense how easily she's willing to forget this fated, almost undeniable connection with one of the MMCs, simply to live out her summer romance with another. At this point, I'm not fussed on who she's choosing, they're both great, it's just a little baffling how easy it is for her to make that decision when she knows how much there is riding on it.
However, the story was intriguing enough and the ending definitely left me wanting to know how it would continue.

Why is this girl always crying?
Erm... Plot where? The dilemma in this is so forced. This is sold as a revenge story because of some things that happened in the first book, but it just makes no sense. Halfway through the book, the MMC seemingly forgets his whole revenge plot, because surprise surprise the FMC and MMC have actually loved each other all along, so this whole thing could have just been sorted out by them leaving their pride aside living their HEA.
Not expecting a literary masterpiece, but it was just a shame as the novella set this up quite well, and it ended up falling flat.
