Reviewed by ButtaDas Buch hat mir alles in allem sehr gut gefallen, ich mochte wie die HCs miteinander umgingen, sich unterstützt haben und zusammen gewachsen sind und auch kommuniziert haben udn Verstänis füreinander gezeigt haben. Ganz toll fand ich dass Finley zum einen so sanft und alles war aber auch, dass sie wusste was sie wollte und keine kindischen Trotzreaktionen gezeigt hatte wenn man sie beschützen wollte. Sehr erfrischend. Auch cool war was sie war und all die Zusammenhänge. Das einzige was mich gestört hat war, dass oft noch mal zusammengefasst wurde wenn gerade was wichtiges gesagt/getan wurde, das war sehr redundant und etwas nervig.
