"If you're so concerned about my humanity, Elena, then reach into my soul and find it, because I'm not sure I have any left."

According to the FBI, I was considered a serial murderer after three kills. What do they call me after fifty-two? They call me the Silencer. One final bullet would have been all it took to stop me from taking another soul, and I would have been doing Meridian City a service by pulling that trigger. An angel crying for help stopped me, and that night, I took three lives for her. Then three turned into eight. Then eight turned into twenty. Twenty turned into twenty-one. Twenty one turned into twenty-three. Elena Young is the hero in my story, but I’m the villain in hers. And this is the kind of story where the villain gets the girl, even if it kills her.

? Starting now?

Im hoping to start tomorrow!

Chapter 4 (view spoiler)[ I thought Christian and the Silencer were the same people. I no longer believe that. (hide spoiler)]

I feel like that's kind of a little bit obvious from the start????? Especially since just from the prologue you can already deduce that he's..... The one being talked about in the synopsis

OH WAIT, CHRISTIAN'S NOT THE SILENCER??!?!?!? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

My guess, its either Neil or Frank idkkkkk

16%

(view spoiler)[i don't know what the silencer means by when he said "it should have been only one, it should have been me", is it like the only person that he wants to kill is just himself? Or i may just overthinking this a little bit too much and he just wants to be the only person to have se* with her (hide spoiler)]

18%

(view spoiler)[“I stabbed myself in the arm and waited for you to find me, and I forced you to help me.”

Yep he's suicidal...CALLED IT! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I thought he was, but then the Silencer got mad that she took the money from Christian's and used that money to buy a new phone instead of using his. Which made me think they were not the same person, but I definitely wouldnt be surprised if they were they same people. (hide spoiler)]

Im guessing that this is going to be an ongoing mystery all throughout the novel 😭, which is really unique because all masked ppl romances that i read already show who hey are on the first few pages.

29%

(view spoiler)[i really hope this isn't another one of those "plot twist, he has a split personality disorder" because christian and the silencer all are suspiciously the exact same. (hide spoiler)]

40%

(view spoiler)[that rejection myst really hyrt for Christian 😭😭😭😭😭, especially acknowledging the context of when it was said (hide spoiler)]

I have two very important things to say....

(view spoiler)[
• I PREDICTED IT!!!! the silencer IS suicidal!
• i predcited it.......Christian...IS the silencer (look at my 29% message) (hide spoiler)]

60%

(view spoiler)[well at least christian knows what stockholm syndrome is...AT LEAST THIS BOOK EVEN ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE DISCUSSION AMONG STOCKHOLM SYNDROME EXIST :DDDDDDDD (hide spoiler)]

72%

(view spoiler)[well ofcourse Christian's a master manipulator........ That's kind of obvious from the start (hide spoiler)]

85%

(view spoiler)[slowly but surely she's becoming a gold digger, and christian is just playing with that dream and becoming a sugar daddy... (hide spoiler)]

100%

(view spoiler)[i mena he got shot......at somewhere in 90% but other than that nothing happened, that's it, book ends 😇😇 (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 6 (view spoiler)[ It is going to be hard to feel bad when the Silencer kills those nasty men. (hide spoiler)]

definitelyy, they deserved it because of what they did to elena

17% (view spoiler)[ Wait, maybe Christian and The Silencer are they same person. That or they both suffered tragedies on September 6th. (hide spoiler)]

Gohnar23 wrote: "definitelyy, they deserved it because of what they did to elena"

Yeah. I was really hoping (view spoiler)[ She was going to press that button, and stop it from happening. (hide spoiler)]

Courtney wrote: "17% [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[i want you t think about it reaaaaaaalllly slowly.......if that is true or not. That's how this managed to become extremely predictable for meespecially with the supposed "secret" identity of the silencer and another future character in here (the executioner) (hide spoiler)]

100% part II because I have more things to say....


(view spoiler)[why is it that Charlotte's entire character is to just be Sadbait, like her entire existence is all for people to get sad at the ending "because she just wants some fucking pancakes".

There are many people claiming this book to have damaged them and so damn emotional especially with that ending but I didn't shed a tear at all. It was all so predictable (yes, even the end), and there are many sad bait scenes in here like...that ending!

It seems like the author just went like....

what if we killed off every single character? That would be extremely saddening 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐 people would "definitely" cry for this..

And i mean it did but.......these are such cheap tricks for a book to just,,.,.,.kill off everyone for the sake of sad and sad it is really forced. But i mean if u did get emotional for this iz ok, its just these very poor and cheap tricks to make people feel emotional without doing any character depth are commonly found in almost all of these "books that will surely make you cry" books. You just predict everything (hide spoiler)]

Yeah he is nuts.

Chapter 14 (view spoiler)[ Im so confued right now. Is Christian and the Silencer the same person or not!??! (hide spoiler)]

Gohnar23 wrote: "29%

I would be mad if that is the plot twist. (view spoiler)[ I agree they both are the exact same though. (hide spoiler)]

Courtney wrote: "Chapter 14 [spoilers removed]"

My reaction: 😐😬

Chapter 15 (view spoiler)[ What an awkward chapter! The Silencer is nuts. This chapter just makes me more confused. Did he break the mirror because he is Christian Reeves, and that the version of him Elena fell for?

I feel out of the minority here because everyone seems to love this book, and its boring as fuck right now. (hide spoiler)]

Gohnar23 wrote: "Courtney wrote: "Chapter 14 [spoilers removed]"

Your plot twist idea is making more sense after chapter 15. Ugh!

(view spoiler)[boring af is TRUEEEEEEEEEEEE espically when this just drags on for sooo longgggggggggg.

but the thing that people fall for this book is that whatever of an ending simply for shock value 🙄 (hide spoiler)]

chapter 6

(view spoiler)[ “They need to know what happens when they touch what’s mine, Elena. They’re going to convert religions, because they won’t be praying to God, they’ll be praying to me. Begging for my fucking mercy after I hunt them all down and show them the true meaning of fear.”  SO HOOOOOOOOT /spoiler> (hide spoiler)]

chapter 10

(view spoiler)[ Fuck Christian Reeves. Fuck him for bulldozing his way into her life at the exact moment I started to. Most of all, fuck him for getting to taste her first. I don’t share. I’ve never had to share, and I’m not about to start. --> sometimes i wonder if they arent the same person, i used to think they were but this book is confusing (hide spoiler)]

chapter 12

(view spoiler)[ “I think if two people are meant to be together, then they will be. I don’t know if that makes them soulmates though. I feel like a soulmate implies some sort of…divine intervention. I think the best love stories come from the people who say that love came out of nowhere for them, not from the people who were looking for love in the first place.” I squeeze his hand in mine. “Do you believe in soulmates?” The corner of his mouth tilts into a smile. “Not until I found you.”

this book is equal parts confusing and cute as fuck (hide spoiler)]

its so confusing lol

Fernanda wrote: "chapter 10

[spoilers removed]"

Im so frustrated that I cant figure out if (view spoiler)[ They are the same person or not. Lol (hide spoiler)]

chapter 38

(view spoiler)[ “I love you.” I say through gritted teeth, her hair wrapped tight around my fist. “I love you so much it makes me insane. I love you so much it makes me dangerous. I love you so much that I would burn this world for you and all the people in it just to keep you all to myself. Do you understand me? If it comes down to a choice, you will choose me. I don’t give a fuck if it costs the remainder of your soul. You are mine and only mine.”

I'm equal parts hating and loving this book (hide spoiler)]

100%
(view spoiler)[ OMG I HATED THIS BOOOOOOOOK what do you mean her dead kills her??? and they left the kid with him?!
