The multiple POVs are probably the biggest reasons why this book is irresistible each of the chapters changes from Laia to Elias and back and it almost always ends on a cliffhanger. Each of the plots interwoven and are is completely compelling.

- Gratuitous sexual violence against women
- Tired trope of rape being the primary character development tool for the female characters
- Very male gaze-y
