What a whirlwind! Not sure why i’m always skeptical if i’ll like another SJM series because i get so attached to the last one. Surprised yet not surprised that I liked this start equally as much as ACOTAR and TOG (and side note: I’m glad I read it in the recommended order of the former then the latter then this). First 100 pages are confusing but trust me the juice is worth the squeeze. Modern romantasy murder mystery that kept me guessing. Emotional whiplash in the last two parts of the book. Crying in the last 100 pages should be expected at this point. Great setup for the next one.
