Snap turned out to be everything I dreamed of and MORE. I was left not breathing at the end of Scream & we are dropped in right where we left off, which I always appreciate. My expectations of this book weren't simply met, they were demolished and rebuilt into something more. I have always felt a closeness to Sabrina, and seeing her snap and rage truly was a healing moment. "...A woman like Sabrina, who knows the answers and has no questions...under the weight of that mask and pink armor, well...she'll snap."
I think my biggest takeaway from this is the absolute STRENGTH each character exhibited. Sabrina facing her biggest trauma for her husband. "This is for my husband. I can do this." Her violent strength was a thing of beauty, and I feel so much pride. Parker repeats his mantra and pushes through, standing beside Sabrina to save "our" husband. And Maks repeating "I will not go back to my wife broken" throughout actually broke me. They all truly went through so much, and watching them fight with and for each other and the life they wanted was so hard but beautiful. I loved every single second.
I also really loved the moments where I cackled because both of our groups are absolutely hilarious, and putting them together is so entertaining. Pink Panther literally was golden. IYKYK. Sabrina's inner thoughts were actually amazing and felt great because I too...am the drama lol
Anyways, this duet is God-Tier for me, and I highly recommend jumping in! I am so thankful to be a part of Ruby Darling's street team. It's truly an honor to be an early reader. Haven't joined the fun yet? Start with Speak <3
