The friendship that blossomed between Em and Damon was so endearing, understanding each other’s pain and keeping each other’s secrets, though I feel robbed of not getting to witness Will’s reaction to Em telling him about Natalya and why they were in the school showers together that night. I think Penelope Douglas did a good job of making us despise Martin and portraying the mind of a domestic abuse victim. The scenes of Martin abusing Emory were so graphic and so excruciating to read. I also personally felt that the descriptions at times were lacking to the point where I found I was getting confused about where they were and what was happening and the logistics of it all. Like where did this rando girl Athos even actually come from all of a sudden who has now been adopted by Rika and Michael. Parts of it felt straight up ridiculous and out of nowhere and left me feeling baffled. This book is so long and if I’m honest it kind of all felt a bit disjointed what with the time we spent in Blackchurch, the flashbacks and the trying to figure out how everything fitted in with the timeline that we’d been given during the other horsemen’s books. I'm only one of her problems.Difficult to rate this book because there was a lot I liked but also a lot I didn’t like. I just didn't expect one of my enemies to come to me. I can sit in this house with no Internet, television, liquor, or girls, but I'll come out of here with something far more frightening to my enemies. Their only mistake is believing anything I do is an accident. I learned a long time ago that being treated like an animal gives you permission to act like one. Popular actually wanted a piece of that quiet, little nerd he loved to torture so much, but. He might've enjoyed backing me into corners in high school when no one was looking, so they wouldn't catch on that Mr. Not that the last time was entirely his fault. There was no way his grandfather was going risk him humiliating the family again.

Reckless, wild, and someone who was never bound by a single rule other than to do exactly what he wanted.

EMORY: Will Grayson has always been an animal, though.
