Lovely writing, but didn’t really interest me in terms of plot. I really liked the characters but not much was going in with them plot wise.

This book and trilogy are going to stick with me for a while. Elodie Harper does such a good job handling such difficult subject matter in a way that’s not too graphic but also doesn’t gloss over the horrors of being a brothel slave.

Amara’s journey trying to get out of her brothel life is both really hard to watch but also so, so hopeful.

Really enjoyed and excited for the next ones. I anticipate interesting character growth in the upcoming novel, whereas this one laid the foundations for the main character’s growth and set parameters for expectations of the archetypal men in her life.

Všeč mi je bil cel aspekt o sestrstvu in o močnih vezeh, ki se spletejo brez da bi se mi tega zavedali.
Amara je lik, s katerim sem se poistovetila in oboževala sem način pisateljice kako jo je predstavila nam bralcem.
Komaj čakam, da pričnem z branjem naslednjih dveh knjig.

Very simply written and quick to read. I was not as emotionally invested as I wanted to be.
