It was so toxic. The whole “dilemma” was completely unnecessary and confusing, how can I be so far in angewandt and it’s not revealed what is going on? It’s really frustrating. Also: the very thought of Emery and Nash ending up together makes me SO sick because that’s just so so toxic. I like enemies to lovers so much but books like this really drag that trope through the mud. I’ve read Darling Venom which is by the same author and it’s one of my favorite books ever, so well executed. But this? Idk what went wrong here but it’s so poorly written that after over 250 pages I have no interest in continuing, I simply don’t care how it’ll end. That’s really sad because it didn’t have to be that way, the plot itself had a lot of potential.
