Yeah, I don’t really understand the hype... I thought we would get a deeper backstory for Sibby, but what we actually received was mostly smut. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy smut, but if 120 pages are basically just that and only 24 pages are dedicated to the story, it’s not enough for me. There was so much potential for a really good story about her and more scenes with our other MCs from Hunting and Haunting Adeline, which we didn’t get. She deserved way better.

💫 I hated these books. Although Sibby was a fun character and this novella was a fun spin I am still not a fan.
I have a lot of thoughts about what I read and a lot of mixed feelings.
The writing, while brutally explicit at parts, somehow managed to come off childish at the same time. I felt like I was reading a story off of Wattpad that an angst filled middle schooler wrote.
I thought the premise held potential. The setting was something I was really interested in, but the overall tone had me rolling my eyes. I can handle horror novels, dark romances, etc., but this was something else entirely.
*The rest of the review contains spoilers*
The one thing I really liked about the story was Silby’s backstory. The whole cult, abusive father storyline was interesting and helped me better understand Silby and her motivations. I wish there was more of that.
I think I could wrap my head around the whole plot, the entire story we read, being a delusion. However, the mental health representation made me feel so icky. I know people aren’t reading this story for proper mental health representation, but I think negative portrayal of mental illnesses only perpetuates stigmas surrounding mental illnesses.
I read this book before going into Haunting Adeline since it was recommended to me. I can handle dark themes and horror, but it’s annoying when those themes aren’t brought into the story in an interesting way.

Am in love or am I in love?
So freaking cute!
I mean cute would be that last word anyone would use to describe Sibby but…….tbh I’m straight but i wouldn’t mind being gay for her….she’s the best
Don’t blame me love made me crazy
Spoilers...sorta.
I swear I’m in love with her
Tho, it got seriously super dark in the end…..wtf those hot af henchmen I was crushing on weren’t real….?
I mean the six-some

I regret reading this after Hunting Adeline. I didn’t have it at the time and I was impatient but I think it ruined the experience of reading Sibby’s story with the things I knew from Hunting Adeline.
This one for me was a bit more gory and a harder read than Haunting and Hunting Adeline.

I'm giving this five 5 ⭐️. It's so good. It will keep you so into this story. There's a big twist at the end. I would read this first, then Haunting Adeline and last Hunting Adeline. They didn't have Satan's Affair at my book store when I found Haunting and Hunting. Sit back and enjoy the ride she takes you on.
