My immediate obsession with Gideon Nav and Harrowhark Nonagesimus is palpable. This series is for lovers of codependent freaks and evil women.

I liked it but i listened to it as an audio book which I don’t think I recommend. The story was hard to follow and I had to really actively use my brain while listening. It wasn’t hugely engaging. I really enjoyed the main characters. Also 0 romance which I usually like at least a little.
