I love the banter in this book but sometimes zade pisses me off with his god complex. Also feel like it was rushed to finish in the end chapters.

Pay attention to the trigger warnings. Your mental health matters. This is a dark book with a lot of trigger warnings and some hypocrisy. As a horror book and horror movie fan, I enjoyed this book and liked the spice.

People may call me crazy for saying that I liked this book, but genuinely I did. Though the book is  traumatic and had EXTREMELY triggering events I couldn’t put it down. Some of the parts were really hard to read but I needed to find out if Addie was okay and if Zade would find her. I think that what makes this book so good is the constant tension of “what is going to happen next.” Constantly wondering what will happen. You grow very closely to Addie in the beginning of the book and really see her growth. She becomes a survivor. She is a survivor. She’s constantly fighting. And you want to fight for her too. Though the traumatic events she endures have negatively changed her life she learns how to push through life because she is a fighter. Also you get to see the a side of her develop that is very similar to Zade, as well as watch their relationship grow too.
