There is no redemption for the mmc. He is a horrible person. It was unbelievable and disturbing.

I started reading in October last year, fell into a reading slump and continued the book in February this year.

Twisted Love is one of my favourite books. The fact that Alex is a tense, stern guy, but becomes soft around Ava is just amazing. The characters are extremely lovable and i genuinely want to be a part of Ava, Bridget, Jules and Stella’s friend group. The tropes are amazing. Personally, i found the part where he sang for her sweet and not cringe as others say. The book is great, although it gives a bit of wattpad vibes.

Aside from all the “attractive qualities” of Alex (rich, successful, handsome) he is obviously very cold and seemingly lacks personality. I don’t see how Ava was attracted to him beyond physicality. That’s my opinion.

This was my first time reading a mature content book. The storyline was decent, it had some corniness at times, and I will say the spice was spicy. I cringed at times with Alex’s dialogue and enjoyed Ava’s pov more.
