3.5
I liked this one but my feelings for it overall are mixed. There were parts that I really enjoyed and other parts where I was left wanting more. And maybe that has to do with this being book one in a duology? Because it kind of felt like this was a bit unfinished. I liked Percy but I felt like he could have had a little more….something. I can’t quite put my finger on what exactly though. And I feel like Haden needed some more development and a bit more screen time. Because even though he was the love interest, he wasn’t around a whole lot.
I did really like the spooky vibes that this book gave me. I think this would be a perfect read for around Halloween! I also liked the omegaverse aspects, but I also feel like they could have been a little bit more prominent. So as you can see, mixed feelings all around. I think overall I’m stuck somewhere between 3.5 and 3.75 stars for this one.
