I half expected someone to be twirling a mustache. The villain angle felt very manufactured. I get how this was set up to be a series but I felt no sense of reward for reading. My husband would call this a case of the blue balls. The feelings were rushed but the payout was not. The relationship itself felt like something of a contradiction. And wait a sec.how do gazes meet if eyes are already locked together? Just reading that passage again made me feel apathetic to what was going on. His body is pressed tightly against mine. I couldn't actually feel the emotion behind them. As well, some of the scenes read very sterile to me. There was a lot of the dreaded "telling instead of showing" going on here. This was not one of the stronger ones I've read. I'm a sucker for student-teacher stories. That said, the book itself wasn't great either. I found it to be an easy read and decent enough to pass the time. Actually, the book itself wasn't all bad. I'll never be able to look at Sam and Dean the same way again.
