This… made me question things about myself. Was I attracted to this? Nahhh…

Yes?

No. No no no…

Well…

Okay, listen — it was well written. It had me on the edge of my seat, it had me sweating, Malachi was… hot asf? WHY WAS HE HOT ASF? What is WRONG with me?! LOL. Check TW’s though, people. It was a TRIP, for sure.

I did NOT like Olivia in a few parts — The back and forth between wanting him and hating Malachi gave me whiplash, but I tried to think of it from this girl’s POV— their situation was … fragile and I would be fked in the head for a lot of this, too. All in all, it was entertaining — worth the read for that.

I loved this book. Absolutely flew through it. Loved having the past chapters in her pov and the present in his. I loved how obsessive Malachi was from the very beginning. I was so intrigued by him. I liked that Olivia was quite confident, really wasn’t a fan of either of her parents, they redeemed themselves a tiny bit towards the end and maybe if the book was a little longer I may have liked them more. The spice had me sweating, there was a certain spicy scene that I don’t think I’ll ever forget, I don’t think I’ve read one like it before and ngl I wasn’t mad about it

Good read for dark romance, too dark for some 
dark medium-paced

Little Stranger has officially become my new favorite book! It has an amazing mix of everything I was looking for! Taboo trope, vicious MMC, romance, depravity, and an unconventional love story that no one could stop. Leigh Rivers created a masterpiece when she invented Malachi Vize if there was ever a mascot for masked men, it would be Malachi
