i’m in shock. awe. all of the emotions. since i only had 30 pages left i basically read this in a day, and if that doesn’t show my dedication to this series, idk what does. first of all, casteel has quickly taken the spot for no1 book bf. i don’t care what ANYONE says about him, he’s perfect. the way he appreciates poppy for who she is outside of her power is especially important to me, this man would literally do ANYTHING for my girl and i love him so much for it. i know a lot of people complain about the repetitive writing but i personally love casteel’s obsession with poppy and her viscous ways, i just love seeing a man on his knees (literally) for his woman. poppy is just incredible: powerful, brave, argumentative, fearless, kind and i love her so much. the both of them together are everything and i will not be forgetting about them anytime soon. in fact, i want to get a tattoo in their honour to permanently mark my devotion to them. this series is fucking incredible. it’s everything i want in a fantasy series and i cannot wait for the next book.

I dont remember whats going on and Cas wanted to fuck Poppy by page 6 and I realized I’m too tired for this much explicit content right now lol

I feel cheated that this was a retelling of the first book from Cas's POV with a tiny plot development... Still read all the words, but not much was gained.

I thought this book existed solely as a cash-grab by the author, and while it is certainly that, I think this book incorporates enough insight to make it worthy of a read. I liked this way more than I thought I would. In fact, I liked it more than From Blood and Ash because it provides a fuller picture of everything that had happened. However, this book wouldn’t work if it wasn’t for all the books before it.
