I really really loved it. At first it was kind of hard to get into when all the bad things happens but after that I couldn’t put it down

People may call me crazy for saying that I liked this book, but genuinely I did. Though the book is  traumatic and had EXTREMELY triggering events I couldn’t put it down. Some of the parts were really hard to read but I needed to find out if Addie was okay and if Zade would find her. I think that what makes this book so good is the constant tension of “what is going to happen next.” Constantly wondering what will happen. You grow very closely to Addie in the beginning of the book and really see her growth. She becomes a survivor. She is a survivor. She’s constantly fighting. And you want to fight for her too. Though the traumatic events she endures have negatively changed her life she learns how to push through life because she is a fighter. Also you get to see the a side of her develop that is very similar to Zade, as well as watch their relationship grow too.

Some things are better left unwritten. This book is one of those things.

Wow. Yep just wow. While this book is much darker, there is beauty to it. The horrors that Addy endured, the pain Zade goes through. All the darkness they both deal with as they are reunited.

I loved how Addy not just survives her personal hell, but with the help of Zade and Sibby, becomes even stronger. How she and Zade becomes flip side of the same twisted coin. Yin & Yang. The dark God and his dark Queen.
