DID NOT FINISH: 23%

I Dnfd at like chapter 9. I am a dark romancish kinda person, I have read some that are pretty questionable. This one i could not stand. No hate to whoever enjoys this book, but by chapter 9 I knew it was a no go for me... I am not gonna be lengthy because there are plenty of other reviews that say exactly how I feel but this book made me physically feel not okay and I was doing the audio book. 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND.

God of Malice by Rina Kent is a dark romance and is the first book of her Legacy of Gods series. 

This was my first ever Rina Kent book. I know her reader’s guide states that all of her series, duets, and standalones can be read independently. However, I felt a bit like I got dropped into a setting that I should understand but really had no idea who was who or what was happening. I have to assume that reading her earlier series first would have helped this book make a lot more sense. That being said, yes, you can absolutely start with this book but I do wish that I’d read her others first. 

So. This is a dark romance. I’ve realized in the last few months that I much prefer gray romance vs. dark romance. And the author’s note in the beginning almost talked me out of reading this one. But, I did go ahead and read it, because (let’s be real here), I already bought the whole series after hearing good things about it and (most importantly!) because of the pretty sprayed edge colors. 

I did like this one but I absolutely have mixed feelings about it. There were some parts I liked, some parts I didn’t like, some parts that were hot, and, overall, I flew through the pages, which usually means I’m liking it. Bottom line? Crazy, spoiled rich college kids are absolutely exhausting. And now I can’t wait to read the others in the series.
