The characters, especially Knight and Luna, are beautifully crafted and utterly captivating. Their journey is raw, emotional, and incredibly relatable. Knight's brokenness and Luna's strength create a dynamic that is both heartbreaking and heartwarming. Their evolution throughout the story is nothing short of phenomenal.
Shen's writing is exquisite, weaving together a narrative that is as poignant as it is powerful. She doesn't shy away from the tough topics, tackling them with grace and sensitivity. The themes of love, loss, and resilience resonate deeply, leaving a lasting impact on the reader.
But what truly sets "Broken Knight" apart is its ability to inspire hope even in the darkest of moments. Despite the tears and heartache, there is a sense of optimism that shines through, reminding us that there is always light at the end of the tunnel.
In short, "Broken Knight" is a masterpiece that deserves to be read and cherished by all. It's a book that will stay with you long after you've turned the final page, and one that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for a powerful and unforgettable read. 5/5 stars, without a doubt.

If you want to read about a hellah toxic relationship under the guise of ‘soulmates’ go for it. I still can’t BELIEVE how everyone in the book continues to encourage this bullshit.

I did love how toxic their relationship was, and also how are Luna’s selective mutism was incorporated and not used as a check mark for a disorder. (and I don’t even know if I’m using that in the right frame.)
My only like negative things I have about this is how his addiction was kind of glossed over in the recovery stage, and also how it started. Another thing was the wishes of a period after death and what those wishes were I didn’t like how HEA it was.
Like he talked all the stuff about how he couldn’t live, and we can find another person to be in his life, and yet when push came to shove once she wasn’t in his life, and she asked this other person to be in their life, now their companions and partners.
It just didn’t set right for me. it was a good story. The spice was an affair because it happened towards the end of the book. It was more of them growing up, and then him getting revenge on what he perceived to be something to get revenge on end, playing both their feelings into the depths of hell.
Would I read this again, probably not, but I am glad I read it!
