That first chapter belonged in a different book. It tainted my view throughout and prevented men from really embracing the MMC as redeemed. I loved all the other books but this one just didn’t hit the mark for me.

This book isn’t for the weak. I am trying to have a soft girl year so this wasn’t for me. However, it’s for someone if they like an intense infatuation that somehow magically is safe from the law

this was so f*cking twisted & honestly gut wrenching at times, but i ended up really having a good time. but the gasp i let out at the like 85% mark— the way this started out made me not sure i would like it, but it ended up being one of my faves of the series!! i’ve never seen the hunchback of norte dame so i know i didn’t pick up on any of the little easter eggs/throwbacks to the story, but i still had a fantastic time! i can’t wait to see what’s next from this series 👀
