In every quiet whisper, every subtle and nuanced thread in the fabric of time, all the tiny ripples in the universe will tell you, that I’m actually just Parks’.”

If you love a flower…” I say eventually, glancing at her. One of my tattoos, about her, like all of them are. “—That lives on a star, it is sweet to look at the sky at night…” can you die from a broken heart, do you know? and if i did and they cut me wide open, would i bleed loving him?” The book reps the title so well with the time these two took to figure things out. The absolute pain, torture and beauty that it was because when I tell you this book put me through so much more than the last book.. I mean that in the best and worst way. reading this book was like watching a car crash occur multiple times but never being able to fully look away. the characters in this book or so incredibly flawed. it is like this constant push and pull whether or not you should be angry with them or sympathize with them. and in the end my heart just hurt for some and wanted to murder the rest 🔪bj isn’t any better, but he also had the addition of a shitty gf aka jordan but i cant even decide who to feel bad for in their sham of a relationship bc they’re both so shit. i mean god it was so bland to read about him using her and his weird shitty excuses for being an ass even when he knew better. Hen: i don’t understand why it was mentioned he was Magnolia’s bestfriend but they talked like, twice in this book? okiesh tho. Magnolia: idc whatever u all say, she is innocent and deserves to be protected at all cost (except for what he'll she put my baby Tom through, for that she need to die 😗) Literally every single character in this book is messed up. Except Bridget I love her she calls them out on their shit.

Everything wonderful, everything magical, everything painful, everything beautiful and spectacular and wretched and defining that has happened to me happened with him. And I hate him for that. Also, I’m sorry but Jessa can’t even make separate personalities for shit. Half of them are all the same person 💀💀 He’s a time bomb for me, do you see now? That he’ll hurt me. He’ll always hurt me. I’ll never be safe with him, even if I’m always safe next to him.” Also! I love the outfits and Magnolia’s fashion sense so much. She reminded me of Rose Calloway in a way. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 💅✨✨Magnolia is so flawed but she’s also so fragile and I get her so much. She frustrated me at times but it doesn’t last long because she’s really just hurting and you can feel how much it’s all affecting her. She definitely makes questionable decisions but so does everyone else around her (I’m especially looking at you BJ) 😪😰 And she’s practically Blair Waldorf so I immediately have to stan 😌 also as w every book in this series/universe, there are many typos/grammatical mistakes and extensive run-ons that can make it quite frustrating to read. also still skipping over all the clothing brand/fabric/blahblah clothing details. far too many too frequently and my non-fashion interested self can’t be bothered since it’s not like i can create an image w the descriptions anyway, and i’m far too lazy to google every damn description baxter james ballentine... aka BLOWJOB or beej in my heart 💔. we were rooting for you, I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU. the way that my mind is sososo conflicted because i literally hate his guts right now but i want to see his growth but im so betrayed right now, like how was i shaking and on the verge of tears from one single chapter? i have no clue. i love him but he can also take another punch from me this time for hurting my magnolia Christin: i liked him at first and then i understood why he was bestfriend with bj. execrable. but glad he had enough courage to stood up for himself at the end. when i was looking for drama this. book. delivered. i ate it up like it was breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. this book was purely purely drama and i would not change it for the world. i don't care about anything else i live for the drama!

i disparately needed some substance to their 'written in the stars' type of bond and relationship. the 3rd december glorification emphasized some heartbreaking and beautiful colors from it but its effects evaporated before the start of Part Two and that’s where i lost the spark and magic the first book sculpted around them. I tend to have a lot of thoughts and my brain begs for them to be released somewhere. So if you made it this far, thank you for staying to read all my lengthy thoughts lmao and thanks to Jess for convincing me to read this and dealing with my chaotic updates ❤️ even though I still question why with the stress it put me through 😅 She could’ve stopped him. He could’ve stopped her. She knew he had a girlfriend and then when he kept saying that he had one, parks felt like it was a rejection. Yet she still wanted for him to do it despite that. 𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙞𝙩 𝘿𝙊𝙀𝙎 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙣, 𝙨𝙝𝙚’𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙧𝙮?? *violent side eye* first of all these characters drive me utterly insane, but in the best way possible. this series had me pulling my hair, screaming into my pillow, sobbing till my eyes were red and swollen. the relationships and friendships in this series are just so heavy and complicated. it’s toxic, lots of miscommunication, lots of drama, unhealthy habits, etc. i think this series hits me like it does, because it’s so raw, heavy and real. i both love it and hate it with my whole heart. it’s very hard and almost impossible to explain my feelings about this series tbh, but if you’ve read it and you love it, you probably know what i mean. I can’t tell you how many times I wanted to shove bj against a wall for driving me insane. he had me fuming during certain points with hurting her the way he did. It was unintentional but intentional the way he does. And then he says certain things that sorta tugged on my heart but those feelings never stayed for too long as he made sure of it with his unrelenting actions. It’s difficult to explain how I’d like to see him redeem himself given what I thought about him here and somehow the little faith I have in him is there given how complex of a character he is.
