I really liked it but I felt like it could’ve progressed more. We went through all of that in the book and it's like the ending took it back to square one.

Harper L. Woods has a way about her writing that makes me go through all my emotions. I can be happy and laughing and the next page I’m sad and angry for the characters choices  to. I remember when I picked up the first book of the series and almost dropped it before it really started to get good. It has the perfect blend of plot and spice. (However if spice is not your thing I recommend skipping this book.) This book is more filler to really meet Mabs character and see how she rules so the reader is able to create a feeling towards her and how she continues to try a wedge between Estrella and Caldris. The series tends to be a bit repetitive but I’m overall glad I kept going and it'll be a bittersweet to see how it all comes to an end.

Too much abuse and torture with no forwarding of the plot beyond that after over 150 pages

Read trigger warnings before this book. It’s very dark. Not alot of hope. I’m unwell. I loved it though.
