"It’s sad that I want to hide my bodies now so that my boyfriend gets a break and can spend more time with me. How twisted can one person possibly get?" She's just so kind and considerate.

Dark! But it was interesting. I was rooting for my girl Lana the whole time, like defeat those gross men my love <3 I love seeing women have hobbies~

The queer and disability rep in this was very questionable at points tho

the bit in the epilogue when its like  "Jake and Hadley are both bisexual, and though they’d never cheat on each other, they do include select individuals in their bedroom on occasion." All for poly, power to ya, but whats with the cheat comment? Is that really necessary? lmao

I do think the series needed a bit more nuance, it makes it's perspective on Lana's vigilante hobbies very clear through multiple characters having the same view.

This book had me hooked from the beginning to the end! I normally prefer character driven books but the plot of this book had me on edge the entire time reading it.

I hardly have words to describe how much I loved this book. It was the darkest, most twisted yet romantic, emotional, spicy yet completely messed up book that I’ve read and it was perfection. I know I’ll be thinking about this one for a long time - it’s easily just become my favorite book.

aamie's review

4.5

Very graphic, gorey + lots of TW. BUT besides that it was so good. I love the continual questioning of morality, legality + reliability of the justice system. Very, very interesting story, I just kept reading!. Although it was instalovey IDC I LOVE IT AND I LOVE THEM U CANT STOP ME. 

She really delivered on the premise Ngl. Didn’t see the ending coming quite a few times, so many little mysteries + big mysteries that were handled really well throughout. 

Bit of spice - some you can skip and others is relevant for character/plot development but it was good!! 

Love it  would read again + def got me out of my reading slump
