4.0

+ for diversity, nice to read something that. 
Maybe I expected more towards the end, but still felt like this ending was meant to be something as a new beginning for whatever we hope it is. I guess we’ll see more of them but as a sidecharacter in the other books. 

Would reccommend this one and the second one in the same series.

For the spicy stuff

This is high angst, high conflict, and high drama, with lots of backstory and abundant obstacles. Not my thing, but I can see why lots of readers like this.
