challenging dark mysterious tense fast-paced

3.5

I’m not really sure what I expected out of this book but I definitely expected it to be more wrapped around the main characters and their “relationship” and I expected it to evolve more at some point. I had a hard time with the blatant non consent between the two also and many times I caught myself thinking the characters were just idiotic. There was way too much r@pe, assault, child sacrifice involved. I get that it’s the plot around which one of the main characters “works” but this book was just crazy. It did keep me intrigued and wanting to know what happens next. That’s about all it has going for it for me. I already have book 2 and still want to know what happens next so I plan to read it but I’m very conflicted on this rating.

Love, love, love. Everyone tells me it's traumatizing, and it's not amazing but it's not even horrible! Although it is pretty dark so the trigger warnings would be good to read... I honestly love Zade and his dedication. Could he have approached the situation differently? Yes. But he did it so she wouldn't be petrified of him when she found out who he really was... it's cute I guess. He's cute. Too cute.

My opinion might be unpopular on this one and no offense to those who enjoyed it but I got bored.

Dark as in there is triggering themes and scenes in regards to human trafficking and stalking. But overall a great book. Well written and I couldn't get enough of it even when it had me going wtf
