“I can’t help but think back on it now, the moment we first met. It felt like fate, honestly; the collision, quite literally, of two people who were just meant to be together. At the time, it reminded me of the stars: how two can collide and fuse into one—bigger, brighter, stronger than before. But what I didn’t know then was when they collided too fast, they don’t fuse at all. Instead, they explode, evaporating into nothing. “


Enjoyed this one much more than A Flicker in the dark but still felt very slow for me.


This book had a very creepy sleepwalking element which lead to the main character feeling very unreliable to me the entire time. She’s completely exhausted and felt so delusional to me at times, I really wasn’t sure what was going on. At some point I had a very small feeling what this was about, I turned out to be partially correct lol. Leading to me giving this one 3.5/5 stars, it was so slow but had some really awesome twists, turns and a great endings in the last 40 or so pages. I’m really glad this wasn’t a long one though or I would have really struggled 😅.
