“It will destroy you” they said. “You won’t ever be able to eat pancakes again” they said. “You will disassociate” they said…
I sat with a gasp on my face, my hand clasped to my mouth for a good 5 minutes when I finished this book.
This is truly a tale of love and loss, heartbreak and heatmending, pasts and futures. The skeletons in the closet will always come out to haunt you.
Life is always complicated and Ariel did not stray from presenting this truth in its gritty, gory, shiny glory. I think it will take me quite a while to process what I just read and how I fully feel about it but I know this will be forever in my bookish soul.

Wow. Just wow. I stayed staring at nothing with my jaw on the floor. Wow even the author’s note. Speechless.

🎧 ALC REVIEW 🎧
Under Your Scars by Ariel N. Anderson
•
I'm sitting here with goosebumps and a lot of feelings after finishing this book. It has been an intense emotional rollercoaster from start to finish. The book starts off by saying this isn't a 'happily ever after' and it's important to keep that in mind when reading because Ariel N. Anderson was NOT kidding.
•
Christian and Elena's story is one filled with an all consuming love, unimaginable trauma and soulcrushing tragedy. No matter what happens, they always choose each other, they heal together, they fight for eachother, they keep rebuilding their lives and their relationship. If you believe in soulmates, they are it.
I will be thinking about The Silencer and The Angel for a long time.
•
The book felt like it was inspired by batman/gotham but not in a lame way! Just the dark gritty vibes of the city and the masked vigilante.
•
The hidden identities of the silencer and the executioner were pretty predictable but that didn't make the book any less enjoyable.

🎧 The audio 🎧
The duet style narrated audiobook was great quality, although narrated isn't the correct word to describe the way Lee Daniels and Joe Arden gave it their all, it was an amazing top tier performance, they really brought each unique character to life. Joe Arden's growly voice as the silencer had me pausing the audiobook to collect myself quite a few times :')
