I found this book difficult to get in to but I’m glad I gave it a shot because I enjoyed it once I got into it. I didn’t realise this book was part of an existing fictional world and I think I’d have found the world building less rushed if I’d started with the earlier series first. I appreciated the main character being disabled and both being highly capable but also experiencing difficulties

A warning for those who would benefit from it - this story starts with a sexual assault. There is also a ghost character who spies on people naked, and this behaviour is not treated seriously by the book or other characters

I loved the own voices rep a lot! People in my life live with visual imparement (their terminology) so it was really cool to see some of that experience tied into a fantasy novel.

The world building was really good! I loved the few little references to Supernatural aswell! Romance and intimacy isn't for me, but the relationships are nice too.

It was interesting and ok. Deeply frustrating at times, but I also enjoyed the characters a lot. The world building is really cool, and I can see a lot of potential in future books.

This spin off series start gave me all I would have wanted in the first series. Plus Roth! It was like everything and more. 

Zayne is still kind of broody and I’m hoping we see more growth from him in the coming books. 

Trinity is a lot like Layla which at first was off putting. But there was more dimension to Trinity. 

Looking forward to reading the next books!

Pretty cliche in almost every way. Super powerful, combat trained, strong woman… who is just oh so clumsy and inexplicably still needs a male body guard, who by the way is super hot, to justify inane reasons to physically touch her all the time. Throw in a not so shocking betrayal, a “if you just talked to each other about your feelings this would be resolved” romantic subplot and a book full of hints to various tragic backstories and you have this mediocre YA modern urban fantasy. 

It wasn’t bad, but I’ve heard it all done (better) before. 

Did not enjoy nearly as much as her other series.

This is literally a fave of the year, I am HOOKED. I felt some real catharsis from Trin that I didn't realize I needed for years now (or didn't LET myself feel). Incredible writing, attention-grabbing plot, and irresistible romance.
