I honestly loved this book! It was kinda slow in the beginning, but NEZHA?? I have a feeling he’s going to redeem himself in the next book. But now that he’s heir to the House of Yin, he might change. 

Oh my gosh, don’t get me started on how I was spoiled, I just know that the next book is going to take my organs out and tangle them, and put it back in the wrong way.
