Don’t ask me why this book took me almost a month to read because honestly I have no idea
3.5 rounded up.
There’s a lot to unpack here. How are all these rich college kids basically highly trained assassins? And why does this school have not one, not two, but three violent secret societies? I’m exhausted just thinking about it.
This book easily could have been 150 pages shorter—there simply wasn’t enough substance to justify the length. The big reveals felt buried beneath all the extra fluff, making them less impactful than they should have been. It also didn’t quite live up to the first book in the series, which had a stronger grip on pacing and plot.
That said, the spice was solid, and if you’re an audiobook reader, the narrators were absolutely perfect.

This had so much potential and a very strong start, but after the first 100 pages everything is just a copy paste. The smut scenes were repetitive and cringey after the first couple, the plot itself was ridiculous. I always try to suspend disbelief but this was just ludicrous. The major plot points don't come into play until after 50% and all of the high stakes scenes are quickly forgotten about and end in more trashy sex. It did NOT need to be 500 pages and would have benefited from more plot exploration and less sex. A lot of people love smut but this just wasn't good.

I liked the last 20% of the book. It was just hate sex for about 80% before any plot even happened.
