✨4/5✨
Did I come for the spice? Yes. Did I stay for the character development? Also yes. Loved Letum and how kind he was to Lilith, and I absolutely loved the ending. The world building was simple, though there certainly could have been more—this story has a lot of potential I think that was just untapped but the writing was very, very lovely. It's a sweet, short read I'd probably come back to in the future.

I enjoyed this book if you're in the mood for something smutty I definitely recommend this 🤭. The author dives into the topics of PTSD, Depression, physical and mental abuse ( this is not in regards to the relationship with MMC), etc. I couldn't really understand the last chapter until I read it a few more time. Other than that it's a pretty good book, do read the trigger warnings 😅

This book opens with an author’s note that says: 
If you by chance know Greek mythology and are well versed in Latin, I sincerely apologize for this book. It won’t be accurate. 
That alone made me bump up my rating by half a star. I appreciate it when authors are self-aware. 
Listen, is this good, enriching literature? No. Did I still enjoy reading it? Absolutely! If this book is trash then it’s my kind of trash because I gobbled it up like a raccoon in the middle of the night behind a dumpster.

To be honest, I don't remember that much, but I know that it felt like a whiplash. One of those moments where everything happens so fast you have to rewind to even grasp what the fuck just happened. It was a strange one, I won't ask myself why I read it, must've been one of those moods (I have questions tho).

Lilith was struggling a lot mentally and the stalker situation didn't help her one bit, (in what world would it ever help?? I don't know what I'm saying, but bear with me) I feel like this was a clusterfuck of things just happening because they could, while there was no solid plot to support.

Death itself is sure. It’s stable and consistent. You can rely on it happening.

i’ve been seeing this book recommended everywhere and i needed a short break from my usual reads of dark romance with something fast/smutty & decided to pick it this up. i havent picked up a pnr book for a while now.. & this book reminded me of how much i’ve missed/loved reading it! we all love a shadow daddy 😌 and of course, if death is a character, say less and count me in. the writing was captivating and easy to follow. there isn’t really a plot because the story is more focused on the characters. while my heart broke for lilith & her struggles, seeing her character development was beautiful. i also loved that death was patience with her! the smut wasn’t overwhelming & was the cherry on top. if you’re looking for a date with death, that’s fast and smutty, i highly recommend this read!
