Was not expecting to like this as much as I did. The characterization of one character in particular

(Tamlin)

dramatically changes from the first book. I think the second and third books in this series work very well together but are sort of disconnected from the first book.

If there had been bigger red flags with Tamlin in the first book or moments where the mask slipped a bit him turning into an abusive prick would have made more sense. Book 1 Tamlin and Book 2 + 3 Tamlin are very different characters and makes the first book feel disconnected. I like book 1 on it’s own and I like books 2 and 3 together but when you put the whole series together the jump between 1 and 2 doesn’t really make sense.

Besides that I enjoyed the books if you can pretend

Tamiln was showing more signs of being abusive in the first book and accept that you aren’t really going to see his character develop in that direction

then it’s pretty good.

there was more plot in the last 50 pages of this book than the 600 pages preceding it

every woman in this book has a traumatic backstory that almost always includes rape, sexual assault, torture or attempted murder. and every man in this book has a woman in his life who that happened to

also, fun drinking game: take a shot every time women are called "females", you will DIE
