Butterflying Awesome!!!! ( )

The only points in life I seem to detest are the ones where the sweet moments of life turn into sucks in an instant, when everything feels so secure but the next moment, you're standing in knee - deep ruins. That's exactly what Will and Layken go through, in the book, and as practical yet devastating the details are, it took me all my energy to take more than 24 hours into finishing the book. As much as the first in the series, Slammed, the book had me bawling my eyes out. Maybe even more than the first. Throughout the book, each character develops into a better version of themselves, and it took away all of my courage to close the book when I had to. Life can be devastating and uncertain, but with the right advice and the 'stars' by your side, you'll get over everything. As the book proceeds, some of the fallouts devastate my soul, but "sometimes two people need to fall apart to realize how much they need to fall back together." ( )

I dont think I have ever cried so much reading a book, honestly. This was an amazing sequel and I can't wait to read the third book. ( )

So I admit that I cried when I read this. Because Will and Layken, I can't even. And when Caulder read that poem, ALL THE FEELS. I was super impressed with Slammed, but Point of Retreat just blew my mind. If you haven't read this series, go do it. Right now, I'm not kidding. It is an outstanding, unforgettable novel. I can't wait for This Girl.❤ ( )

Better. Somewhat.
But I still stand by my previous assessment.
I DO NOT get the HyPE.
I blame my curiosity for reading this book. I guess I wanted to get into Will's head. Time wasted, really. ( )
