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.

is this the best literature I've ever read? surely not. did it make me actually kick, scream, blush, and devour every bit of it?! absolutely. I'll just leave you with this ....

"I love you, my monster"
"And I love you, baby"
More than she'll ever comprehend, think, or know.
I love her to the point of fucking madness.

if you're in for a morally black villain who sees only the FMC... you'll absolutely eat this up. idk if the next book will top this one but I'm willing to find out.

I can’t do it. Thought maybe I was just tired but I gave it over two hours and I don’t have any sense of the characters, no idea where the plot was going, and I just don’t care. Why is this book so hyped??
