Reviews with content warning for Injury/Injury detail - God of Malice

I really enjoyed this book. I do have some mixed feelings about Killian, but for the most part I loved his character. I love how protective and possessive he is with Glyndon. I love that because he loves Glyndon he was willing to do things with her in mind. The chapters in his pov were fun to read. I've never read a character quite like his.

Glyndon is just a sweetheart. I love how much she cares about everyone. And I hated that Devlin used her compassion and empathy for others against her. I'm so happy he got what was coming for him in the end.

I will say I think my favorite character so far in this series just from this book alone was Brandon. I can't wait to get to his book. But I'm also excited for all the other characters books as well.

I absolutely recommend this. And I'm excited to get into Creighton and Annika's book next. I really loved their interactions in this book, so I feel like theirs is gonna be a really fun one.

The first attempt to read this book, few month ago, was a failure.
I stopped within 30 pages and the chapter still remains an issue for me (I will explain below).

I tried again this time with the audiobook and it was a way better experience.

It is not quite an ennemies to lovers but we can relate.
Virgin and awakening FMC
Psychopath MMC
Secret societies (along with mafia vibes)
He falls first

Now I have two issues (big ones):
- the first “spice scene” and how it is treated all along the book.

It is basically a rape and a particularly degrading one, it made me really uncomfortable the first time and still do also because it is romanticized all along the book and no it is not.

- the POV of two characters (one chapter each) that give no information whatsoever. These don’t add anything to the story or the other characters. It adds pages but nothing to the plot.

Nevertheless the narrators are really good. So thanks to them.

⚠️Please take the trigger warnings seriously, no book is worth it. ⚠️

The author of the book did an excellent job in portraying the character of Killian as a psychopath, which was evident from the start of the book. The author's writing skills deserve appreciation for selling it so well.

However, there was a plot twist involving Devlin that left me furious.

After going through so much heartache over Devlin, Glyndon did not deserve to find out that he was not even dead.

The book had many characters, which made it a bit confusing to keep track of them all. Thankfully, the book came with a family chart, which helped me follow the plot.

Overall, the book had enough plot and character development, making it a bearable read. However, the book could have been shorter than its 400 pages.
