"This book hurt so bad. It’s part of an interconnected series, so be sure to start from the beginning! Magnolia and BJ’s love story is messy. They are two deeply flawed people but are soulmates without a doubt. We watch them try and navigate life and deal with the  consequences of their own decisions. The connection is cosmic, toxic, and impossible to look away from. The angst is honestly painful and they broke my heart multiple times but the conclusion was beautiful and worth the journey." -Larissa

"Exodus is the second book in the Ravenhood series, and it will absolutely destroy you. The Ravenhood series is filled with angst and forbidden love. Each book keeps you guessing and I love the characters we meet. I feel like it’s best to go into this book blind but just make sure you check triggers! I love these characters and they have a permanent place in my heart." -Larissa

"This book caught me completely off guard. It’s a story about Ari and we see her grapple with first loves, second chances and the heartbreak that shapes who we are. It’s also about rediscovering yourself and healing. It has a ton of drama, betrayal and a love triangle of sorts (which isn’t usually my fave but this was done well). I binged this book in a day and haven’t stopped thinking about it ever since." -Larissa

"This book hurt so much. We follow Iris as she finds herself in a relationship that turns abusive, leaving her fighting for hope and a sense of self again. In the process, she learns what real love is supposed to feel like. It’s absolutely devastating to read what she went through, but it’s also so beautiful to watch her come out of it stronger and more resilient than before. This is a story of survival, strength, and reclaiming your life." -Larissa
