my first review didn't save which is depressing bc it was unhinged and there's no way this will be as good but here goes...
If I had to describe this book in 2 words it would be FEMALE RAGE and I was HERE. FOR. IT. It was YASS QUEEN quite literally. And like, obvi we knew Emilia was going to become queen but the way this book made it happen was incredibly satisfying. It rounded out Emilia's and Vittoria's characters and solved/explained some of the issues I had with characterization in the second book. The little teases we got of the brothers were really intriguing and I will sell my kidneys for a Lust spin-off.
The spice amped up even more and was absolutely delicious. While it wasn't the most deranged smut I've read (this says more about me than the book), I still had to be careful about how loud I was listening to it in my car at red lights.
I think part of the reason I loved this series so much is because it feels like dark mythology. I can't exactly explain it but the idea of the sins and the goddesses and the magic is just 100% up my alley and I can't wait to read more of this universe.
