Finally, we're at the end of the road and what a journey it is. Author, my deep gratitude for letting my ship sail. And I'm so glad that Juliette finally stepped up to become a person that she deserves to be.

I just wish that I could've given this book a higher rating but the fact that the book gave too much attention to the fucking romance irked me to death. And there was so much drama between Adam and Juliette's breakup that I can't help but cringe. I swear, I asked myself whether the whole thing was a soap-opera-incarnate.

Furthermore, I wished that there was more to the plot. It was so predictable and I felt like Juliette and company's victory was so easy.
