Masterpiece!
To tell you I DEVOURED this book would be an understatement! I did not expect for it to be this good. I finished it in 2 days with only a few hours of sleep. I literarily COULDN’T.PUT.IT.DOWN.The story sucked me in from the first chapter. I love it when a book starts directly with a straight-to-the-point meet between the protagonists and not dragging the inevitable for a few chapters just for the sake of it. That is why I applaud L.J. Shein’s writing style because it gave me all the feels from the beginning.I must admit I’m not a super big fan of the second-chance trope but this one was delivered like a true masterpiece, which is the case for the whole book. The more you go into the story the more you understand it was the best for them to separate ways the first time. It helped mostly Maddie to get rid of her insecurities and be her true self when she meets Chase the second time round. And thanks to that Chase also felt liberated and was able to become his true self around Maddie, so they could realise (just as us the readers) why they are a perfect fit.Don’t get me wrong, they were times I wanted to punch both of them for being stubborn idiots, but I think that that is also the beauty of this book: showing that anyone can make mistakes and change and that nothing in life is only black or white. In other words, I could feel the characters as true human beings and could relate to both of them on a personal level.And yeah, I’m in love with Chase Black and his character development. But I also love that Maddie also went through an even bigger character development. Most of the times, in books like this, the female protagonist is well established from the beginning and doesn’t change much throughout the book. It’s always the alpha male that does the growing up. But here, it was both of them and it only added to their love story feeling more genuine and authentic.Last but not least, I loved how the author approached the question of tragedy happening in the book. She did it in a way that celebrated life rather than mourning death and gave bittersweet feelings to it (not the deaths of the main characters, don’t get alarmed!).I give it a 10/10. Masterpiece!

The Devil wears black
Letto in due giorni in lingua originale. Ben scritto. Mi è piaciuto molto. È stato avvincente. E credo che i personaggi rappresentino bene le sfaccettature dell'essere umano.Leggerò ancora altri libri dell'autrice
