I would consider the first half of this book very slow paced and the other half very fast paced. 100% Worth it though

Content Warnings

Graphic: Alcohol, Death, Torture, Gore, Drug use, Cursing, Addiction, Grief, Murder, Violence, and Blood

Moderate: War, Sexual content, Gun violence, Confinement, Bullying, and Body horror

Minor: Death of parent, Vomit, Suicide attempt, Suicide, Suicidal thoughts, Self harm, and Fire/Fire injury

This book is 18+ so it goes pretty heavy on some of the trigger warnings I listed. It’s still good if you can skip through them or if they don’t phase you too much.

This book made me cry, at multiple points. Sarah J. Maas is a queen of giving us, real female protagonists. Bryce was everything I could ever want in the main character. She is strong, sexy, badass, and full to the brim of emotions. This book is a 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
