So good!! This is a dark academia romance, and when I say dark, I mean DARK! This is not the book for you if you are easily grossed out by gore, because there is a LOT of cringe-worthy, toe-curling scenes throughout. All that said, the author did a phenomenal job capturing the little details and creating a great storyline to accompany the spice. There wasn’t a ton of spice scenes, but the ones that were in the book were HOT! Anyway—I’m glad this book accidentally made its way into my listen bin.
