Thank you Storygraph for the giveaway.

In the beginning, I thought I was really going to like this. I could relate to the FMC and her mental health struggles. But I as I was reading it felt like the book was dark just to shock you and lacked feeling. A lot of telling instead of showing. And things would happen with no reasoning or explanation to follow it. It also felt like we were being led up to a big spicy scene, only for it to be skimmed over and cut short.

Got this in a giveaway and read in one sitting - I enjoyed, but read the trigger warnings before diving in, they’re there for a reason

Won in the giveaway. Thank you. 

Local Lesbian reads straight erotica. How they feel about it will not surprise you.

It’s moderately okay if you like non-con, medical play, BDSM shit, temporary FMC death, and polyamory. I unfortunately don’t and skipped the trigger warning section, so I didn’t finish. This book would be liked by someone who likes Credence (Penelope Douglas).

I got this for free in a Storygraph giveaway. I got cocky and was like, "I'll skip the trigger warnings". Rookie mistake. 

Thank you to the author for including such comprehensive warnings, though. She knows that this book is not for everyone and it really is my own fault.

Not very well written. Things seem to just happen without any explanation.
