I am SHOCKED I loved this book as much as I did. I was actually thinking I’d like this book the least because I knew it was Damon’s book, and from the first two he definitely wasn’t my favorite person. BUT seeing the depth of his character and his childhood really made me like him and have empathy for his character. I will say this one is VERY heavy so check TWs before going into it. But I really loved his character arc and redemption that he went through. And Winter? LOVE her. I appreciate the fact she has a disability and I thought the writing from her perspective was well done. The spice? WAS SPICING. The plot? Honestly I keep thinking I know all there is to know in these books and while I figured out some of the plot I was thrown by the twist at the end. I DID NOT see that coming. Overall I am now officially a Devil’s Night girlie bc if Penelope Douglas could make me like Damon, I am HOOKED and SOLD on this series. I love the found family vibe and how they’ve all come together and I wanna be besties with the girls in this series so bad. I can’t wait to start the next one.

busyreadingbooks's review against another edition
I tried to reread this series but I just can't do it so i was only skim reading 😭🥲 It's because they're all so fucking cringe!!! The characters, the plots, the dialogues, the monologues, the angst!! They're so pretentious and obnoxious for a group of nobody who never really know anything about everything. Like they're all so shameful, immature, childish, shallow, nihilistic and stupid. There were some tender moments between the friend group here and there, but overall, it's not worth at all to read this series if you care about depth and meaningful relationships. The horsemen and their wives are also The cringiest wealthy white privileged and white-washed group i've ever got the misfortune to read about!
Every book is just so full of misogyny and slutshaming and the only character who didn't do this was Emory Scott. Like fuckkkk they're all so fucking shitty, man. Don't even tell me to not read dark romance, because i do loved some dark romances and eroticas esp by Trisha Wolfe, ST Abby and Harley Laroux, but danggg PenDoug is just not it.
However, on a reread, i noticed that i can stand rika and michael a bit more now, they grew on me ngl, but godddd i still cannot fucking stand damon!!!!! He needs to be fucking muzzled bro, irdgaf about him. And winter too. Two annoying shallow dumb hypocrite bitches who should've just died in the car crash. All they do is hate on women, be horny and blame everyone on everything. Two shallow dumb bitches who live in a tiny echo chamber and their worldviews never expanding because their hearts are disgusting and puny af. Anybody who loved kill switch just have an ass taste in reading frfr. I don't trust any of y'all who's fav is damonwinter. Stale white bread of a couple. NO THANK YOU, NEXT!
Surprisingly, i don't find kai boring as much during my reread, in fact i thought him always grinning, chuckling and laughing in hideaway was kinda cute. I didn't notice that before because Banks caught my attention the first time around, but i guess my opinion of Kai changed a bit now. He's still kinky and sometimes bitchy, but At least he knew about responsibilities. Think about men getting away with the bare minimum, that's Kai Mori. I said what i said.
Will's ofc, still around, being useless as fuck, that's his number one favourite talent and skill, he was only useful when hes being a fucking tool, a hypocrite whore, being an addict and being a bitch to everybody. Thank god for aydin because if not, he will only think he's the only motherfucker suffering in this world. Cant believe he got mad at emmy for dumping him for the thing he was and still is: trash. I though that was a slay move by emmy. "Oh woe is me, and my non-existent problem, and my white privilege family thinking im a loser because im an irresponsible bitch 😔" 😵💫🙄
Loser ass bitch grayson who's not a man and never stood up for anything, and even when he did, he fucked shit up and was never enough for anything. No womder he was a nobody AND a nobody's fav, If i was emmy, i would've grilled him worse. Will Grayson that stupid motherfucking bitch can go fuck himself and die and take Alex Palmer with him honestly, thank goodness for one Emory Scott. Emory Scott will always deserve better to me.

UGH!!!!!!! okay I am still kinda anti damon!!! He's so terrible and shitty for taking advantage for winter when she's BLINDDD
sex is so vulnerable for women + she's blind which takes it to the next (worse) level
I get that she forgives him and thats her right!!!! But I don't
