4.0 AVERAGE


3.5⭐️

I feel like barely anythingggg happened until the very end, a bit of a slow start but I see the potential! I also had to force myself to overlook the amount of times she used the word “freaking”, and the many other typos/mistakes I caught

I’m actually obsessed. 1 POV. Lots of mystery and a good plot. Reverse harem-5 MMC’s with wildly different personalities. The characters are deliciously fun. I listened to the audiobook and really enjoy the narrator. I literally couldn’t stop listening to this for the life of me. Absolute slow burn. Not too much spice in this book but a definite promise of more to come. Some fun twists throughout. My only qualms and why I subtracted .25 of a star is the writing could have been a little bit better and if I had a dollar for every open threat, I’d be rich. But it’s not enough for me not to immediately pick up the next book to devour.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Wow. I'm honestly so fucking mad I waited this long to read this.

I cannot tell you, how I feel like a kid in a candy store right now, knowing there are more books in this series !!! MORE BOOKS!!!!!

No one speak to me or even breathe in my direction. I will be MIA for the foreseeable.

Speak soon xoxo

how dare it end like that?!?

- i loved it finished this in less than a day. head empty just thinking about 5 men obsessing over me like how they are with our heroine. so many times i felt so bad for fallows for being treated so bad by them especially the draven but mostly nox. i hope he gets a redemption arc because that was NOT it. lovef atlas and gryphon though they were chef’s kiss.

- the worldbuilding was very easy to follow which i love and call me a whore but i love this whole reverse harem concept thing because i did not know that was a thing with this series but boy am i happy.

- i feel like another favorite i’ll have would be north because i have a thing for silent broody men with a commanding presence. he may need a few redemption arcs here and there but bah there’s 5 more books so here we go!

4.5 stars!

the enemies to lovers goes crazy. when do they become lovers ???? (screaming, crying, and throwing up). 

my thoughts on the bonds:
gryphon is my favorite. i’m on the fence with north and gabriel (gabriel has higher ranking). i don’t trust atlas for some reason (unknown as to why). nox can kindly (or not so kindly) fuck off. 

overall: loved this book and can’t wait to dive more into the series. the only thing that bothered me was the amount of times she said fuck in the beginning of the book (yes, i say it a lot, but it was mildly annoying at first).

I'm a little confused about the flow of the story. I think I need to read the next book to be able to grasp the story. At first, I hated the fmc because she was so unreasonable and loves to speak foul words.

this is one of those books that’s so mind-numbingly bad that you just have to keep reading to see how much worse it can get. 

if you enjoyed this, might i direct you toward the billions of words written by 15 year olds in 2013 about y/n being sold to one direction? literally the exact same thing as this except the girlies who wrote 1d fanfiction actually cared about writing an interesting harem.
