The lack of care for Bethany's mental well being, consent, care for her wants and needs is astounding! For 40%of the book Jace goes on and on about what "he" wants & is questioning whether or not he's obsessed, but never if she wants the relationship. He just picks her up and takes her. There's absolutely no basis behind the relationship, no conversation about anything other than ist"bullshit" that she's not good enough for him. Help her have some self efficacy, help her build as a person to feel worthy, not just tell her to do it. There are incomplete sentences and forced nonsense. Everytime things started to move in a healthy direction, the book would take five steps back. This was so unlike the first book in the series. I will not be continuing on. Mild spoiler: When Mia and Bethy are talking Mia says something to the effect that she doesn't have anything to offer Gabe either, other than herself. I'm just not sure what kind of message this this book is trying to send but it was not how it came across in Rush.
