There's something kind of poetic about a world where we aren't pretending s*x doesn't equal power, unhinged monster or not.
Don't get me wrong I was gasping here, there, and everywhere with this one. Even got me a pearl clutch in. As I went further and further into the rabbit hole though I felt all the things a compelling read might make you feel. I was giggling, rolling my eyes, frustrated, I even raged a little. At quite litterally every chapter people kept telling me the craziest part hasn't even happened yet, and though I was in disbelief, they would have been correct.
What Straube has done elegantly is create a world where intimacy doesn't have to hold fear or punishment, so for that alone it's in my good books.
My advice for you dear reader, is do not go into this dark night alone. Find a friend, find a few. Have some conversation, laugh a little as you process. All in all it was worth every second spent and I look forward to what comes next. Consider my bookish hazing ritual complete. Straube has me in her clutches. I'm a changed woman.

It has the spice, the banter, secrets, and he falls first!
Did it take me over 2 months to read? Yes. Was it a good book? Also yes and I would recommend but mfc is 20 (and I know how some people are, so I thought I would add that). It didn’t really hold my interest all too much but it was a good book!!
