I’m hesitant to continue the series. I’m worried the other books will have the same initial slow pace. But mostly, and spoilers ahead, I’m worried about Firth and how he’s portrayed in later books. He’s a manipulative, disgusting person. But there are times when I’m not sure if the author intends for him to seem that way. If he continues to be a main character and his flaws aren’t addressed, and corrected, then he needs to be a villain. I’ll have to think on whether I want to take that chance and continue the series.
Moderate: Classism, Emotional abuse, Forced institutionalization, Gaslighting, and Hate crime
Minor: Kidnapping and Cultural appropriation
