It was good, and I had a good time with it! I enjoyed the fast paced unraveling of minds, methods and every bit of morality that either was there, or entirely missing. 

Still, it was a lot more graphic than I expected, which for me ended up in a trigger episode.  This is your PSA read the content warnings before starting a book, take care of yourself ✨

Hahaha this book was so clever, it absolutely payed off everything it set up and i was grinning as I finished it

I loved the way it portrayed Eli’s zealotry. Like his own ability to heal being conflated with god’s approval UGH now that’s a fuckin villain *chef’s kiss*

Excited for the second one!

This was a really fun read!

I'm a sucker for a well written villain or anti-hero and this book had both! As well as one of my favorite tropes of found family. One thing I'm excited to find out about is:
Does Sydney ever find out about Victor killing her sister?? God, the drama! I need it.
 

Definitely picking up book #2 ASAP.

It wouldn’t have taken me this long to finish if I didn’t have such a busy month. What a work of freaking genius. 10/10
