4.0
The first of a three-part series (the others yet to be published!), this book had me so hooked as Amara manipulates her master to make life a little more tolerable. And Dido was one of my favourite characters, she just seemed so sweet and I was also fully invested in her character, pleased that Amara was trying to alleviate her circumstances too.
A well written and fast-paced novel by Elodie Harper, such a joy to read!
