Maybe if there was a date on it (hopefully there will be in the finished copy?), then I would feel differently about it. As it stands, the ending is a bit of a whirlwind, and while that may be intentional because of how action-packed this story is, it could have been even more amazing with more time and space.ģ) There are news clips at the end of the book so the reader knows how Emika and Hideo are doing, and I found it to be. Given an additional 50 pages or so, I feel that this story could have been wrapped up a bit better. For the most part though, I was able to look past that, accept that they were the ship, and even root for them.Ģ) I felt that the ending was a tad rushed. I appreciated that we got to see them struggle through the obstacles of their relationship more in this book, but it wasn't enough for me to fully understand their attraction for one another. 'just because', I still wish I understood their feelings for each other more. Usually, the characters can commit murder, theft, etc etc and get off scot-free.ġ) While I accepted that Emika and Hideo are a couple. I don't want to go into too many details about this because of spoilers BUT let's just say that it's rare to see actual due process be carried out in books.

These two have such a beautiful, twisted, and tragic relationship that just thinking about it makes me emotional.ĥ) The plot in Wildcard is so much more action-packed and absolutely not predictable-unlike Warcross. I literally could not put this book down.Ħ) You know how you watch a movie or read a book, and somehow no one gets arrested for the things they do? Well this book actually depicts the consequences for breaking the law as well as how rich people still often get the easy way out. I would kill for a novella about those two.Ĥ) Hideo and Zero. We just get little nuggets of what their lives were like but it's still so swoony and tragic. I especially enjoyed Zero and Jax's story, which was so heart-wrenching. And in Wildcard, we find out exactly what happened with him, what he's been up to. To me, he is the most interesting character in this series overall.
