Would have been really good as a stand alone but if there is a second book then this was also amazing lolraebies_03's review against another edition

The manipulation and abuse from Raven definitel hit a nerve with me. I hate seeing people being taken advantage of and as someone who has been in Nirrim's position, I felt very connected to her character. In saying that, I also connected to Sid in the way she was so angered to see Raven treat Nirrim as she did.
I'm looking forward to continuing the series. Very happy to close out the year with a 5⭐️

Sid and Nirrim are a cute couple but I don't know how it ends. I guess leaving the book on such an abrupt ending ticked me off because it felt like a lot of build up for not much pay off bit I suppose that's why is more than one book.
Don't get me wrong, the book is okay but just didn't gel with me.

The plot really seemed to... stall, like a bunch of times. I found myself getting bored frequently.
I did listen to this as an audiobook and narration is really a make it break thing for me and I wasn't a huge fan of the narration, so honestly that played a big part.
I always love me so good queer rep. But the MC and her relationship with her "mother" made me irrationally frustrated. By the time I decided I wanted to DNF I was only about an hour from finishing it so I pushed through, and honestly I don't remember a whole lot because I just couldn't make myself care.
