✨️ Minor Spoilers for The Annihilator ✨️
Omgosh, this book. I can't seem to come up with the right words so this review will be short and sweet.
This book was dark, emotional, and healing. It's one you have to read it to understand it.
This book is about the Shadow Man and Lyla. I want to squish them both and keep them safe. This book won't be for everyone, and I was apprehensive when I read the triggers. However, as the story did for lyla, I could feel the healing of the character flow from the pages and it fitted Lyla and The Shadow Mans dynmaic beautifully. This book was both beautiful and ugly and I loved how the shadow man put Lyla back together. This book had me in a complete chokehold. I couldn't read fast enough!
I keep thinking RuNyx can't top the last book, but they keep blowing me away. Now to wait patiently for the next book. I have no doubt the wait will be well worth it.

This is just one of my all time favorite authors. This story was so heartbreaking but also so beautiful. Can't wait for the final book in the series!
