SK's Reviews > Reckless

4.5 stars✨

"I will smother every emotion but the one that belongs to her. I will love her until I am incapable of the feeling.
She is the torture I may not survive."

Wow I was expecting to rate it just four stars but then the ending happened and OH MY GOSH CAN WE TALK ABOUT IT?! I NEED THE NEXT BOOK RIGHT NOW 😭😭😩

Let's get real here, this book has been getting some mixed reviews and tbf it is not you, it is most definitely the book. It is not for everyone. If you want some advances in plot? It doesn't really do that, that aspect is minimal. However, if you want some bonding, relationship development, and angst this is the one for you. I personally, loved that the author took time to build on Kai and Pae's relationship as the way the book ended felt A LOT more impactful.

I loved Kai and Pae's POV. The way they felt about things and the action sequences were good. Kitt's POV however fell flat for me. I was expecting him to be a bit darker, but I got mildly dark at the most. But I understand he is grieving and a responsibility was pushed on him that he wasn't yet fully prepared for. I can't wait to see what he plans to do in the next book. I AM NERVOUS AFTER THE WAY IT ENDED.. HELP 😭😭😩

One thing I really appreciated was Pae's father's journal. I liked the insight and the reveal cause OH MY GOSH 😩😩 I also liked to see Pae trying to cope with the loss of Adena. Kai and Pae coming to terms that they both did each other wrong. It's underrated. To understand someone so deeply the way these two did and people are calling their relationship development as "nothing happened?!" I AM SHOOK 🤯

I absolutely ate up the romance. It was perfect. The slow burn, the angst, the yearning, the banter all hit. Only one bed and only one horse were nice additions. That one gambling scene in this kinda gave Feyre and Rhysand's throne scene in the Night Court vibes, but only make it PG13 👀🤭

One thing that I was really looking forward to was Mak's character. I wasn't aware that he is supposed to be in Fearless and not this one. I was really hoping for a showdown of sorts between him and Kai/Kitt. That kinda bummed me which is why it's not a perfect read for me.

THAT ENDING IS KILLING ME 😭😭
SCREAMINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
