Review after half of the novel

Interesting, funny and dramatic. I like the concept and the story line although the drama is still the main concept and sometimes it can be a lot and you need to stop for a (little) breathe. But apart from that, I like this book, it is no boring so far and it keeps you in suspense you cannot resist to wait for the next chapter and see how things are going to be, because you think the characters are going to react in a way but every time they act completely different from what you thought, and I like that. Very unique.

Review after half of the novel

This is an absolute good read! Once I started reading, I, really, just could not stop. Very Good work! I am very appreciative of the story line and having both perspectives of the main character's. The thought processes of June and of Hermes gave the story of special touch. Especially, because they both are crazy about each other from tge start .๐Ÿ˜„ I love how naturally human the characters feel lol. It was super intriguing from the very start.

Review after half of the novel

Weโ€™re wired to look for patterns and feel in controlโ€”like weโ€™re predicting whatโ€™s coming next. Then something flips the script, and suddenly you realize the rules were never what you thought. It creates that double feeling: fun because itโ€™s surprising, and unsettling because it exposes how limited our control really is. A lot of great storytellingโ€”and even games or puzzlesโ€”play with that tension. They let you feel in charge just long enough that the twist actually means something. Without that illusion of control, the surprise wouldnโ€™t land as hard. And zooming out a bit, it does echo something real: we make plans, build narratives about our lives, but there are always bigger systems, randomness, and other people shaping outcomes in ways we canโ€™t fully steer.

I like this novel plot. The intensity... the excitement... the wondering what is going to be next ... there is never a dull moment for June.. I like the fact that you can't really see what's coming next..... you want to keep reading ... you want to know so you keep going. I love the story line. Something different and exciting. The writter keeps the audience glued and interested...I can't wait for the next chapters excitement!!! Another late night ๐Ÿ˜„ ๐Ÿฅฐ ๐Ÿ˜…

Review after half of the novel

Amazing story !!!!! It is a deeply layered, complex novel that explores the various, often conflicting, dimensions of the emotion through the lens of the main characters. I love the point of views of the characters to be able to see the insight of their feelings and thoughts. The scenes are very enjoyable through the imagery and imagination. I . L . o . v . e .

Review after half of the novel

I can't wait to see where this is going. I switch between wanting them to find eachother, and wanting June to step up for her self. I am a sucker for hopeless love though... I get super frustrated everytime I run out of points to keep reading, because it is so hard to let go of the story while I get more points. This novel took me from the first page, both the juicy stuff, but also the feelings behind it all.

Review after half of the novel

Its too much to read both sides of the novel too much repeating. Seems like going in circles. Then to be able to unlock next chapter the ads are way too long just to get a few pages. Those pages just repeat the same just different point of view. Maybe keep moving on instead of repeating so much so it does not feel like the novel drags on and on. Might keep readers interested as I keep getting uninterested when the following chapter repeats

Review after the novel completion

The first section with June and Hermes kept me intrigued and wanting to read more and more. Loved the ending and going on from there to the story of Tobias, La and Cain peeked my interest. You need to finish their story. It contains so many different characters and their stories of life. Going from extremely rich characters born with a silver spoon and how their lives are supposed to be better but they have many issues and problems. Then jumping to actual dangerous people involved in gangs, guns, knives, violence, the Mafia and murder keeps your interest in this novel. But the ending leaves one hanging for the next chapters just to see where it goes and finally ends. Will have to wait for the novel about Cain and his love.

Review after half of the novel

It's very addictive. I've come to the place in the story where June goes to the gala. Glad it had a twist in the attraction between them! It was beginning to be a copy of itself, so it was refreshing. I like the way we hear it from both parties. Sometimes I'm guessing what Hermes is thinking when I read it from June. Often I get surprised. I like the place where the story are now, where people around June and Hermes gets activated
