I had started to guess it was going to happen but was so disappointed when it turned out she was just a reincarnation of the previous love interesting, what little good character development was basically swept aside for this terrible "twist"

I have no idea why I kept putting this book off. It's definitely the best book of the year so far. I wish I had read it years ago. It is very much like the shadows between us except a lot spicier. 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
