I almost dnfed this one, but I kept going! 2 strikes... first strike for me part 1 was to long, not necassary at all. Strike two was the 'blackmailing thing of them f*.'

Tik tok has spoiled me the heck out of this books so I knew what the storyline was about ... So I know the charachters are in the same bloodline. Still found that weird. Also I don't find this man attractive. In one chapter he depends her to take her clothes of and she is unsure... give me the ick...

okay so i had really high hopes for this book because it’s all over tik tok but i’m not sure how to feel. the whole royal plotline was a bit tedious and it got boring

i feel like if a stronger emotional connective has been established between rhys and jules i wouldn’t have minded the like 300 pages of royal plot lines, but that wasn’t there which makes the book lower rated. i also haven’t read the first book in the series and twisted games was the first one i’ve read 

some of the smut is REALLY out of pocket

yall... this mf book!!!

people talk about their book boyfriends but i don't think anyone understands that Rhys Larsen is literally the book boyfriend. Like he knows exactly when to be funny, he's protective, he's brooding, he hates everyone but her. like he is literally the only man.

on a different note, the amount of different turns this book took?? like not one chapter went by where i wasn't wondering what happened next. the plot of this book was so wild in genuinely the best way.

all in all, i loved this book. it is definitely one of my top reads this year for sure.

Absolutely love this book. Compared to Twisted Love, safe to say I most definitely love Twisted Games more!!! 
The beginning of the book may have started off a little slow but the events and pov changes entices and attracts you into the story. The plot was decently planned and flows well. 
The writing is easy flowing and simple to understand. It hits you in the feels. However, I personally get my feelings turned off when I see a cuss word unnecessarily in a sentence. Despite that, I still think this book is well-written for young adults to easily comprehend. 
I teared up and almost cried reading for the first time during the last two chapters before the epilogue. This book made me believe in love again. 🥰

RHYS LARSEN. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. 😭 He’s not only a secret romantic but also a secret cinnamon roll!!! 🥺
BRIDGET VON ASCHEBERG. CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!!!! 💳💥 So proud of our Princess 🫶 from being scared and insecure, going through so much all at once, she pulled through and became the best version of herself. Highly respected, OUR QUEEN 🩷

Overall, this book was nice to read. It may feel draggy in the beginning, but the suspense when you reach the second half of Part 2, bless me. 
THERE ARE SPECIFIC CHAPTERS I WOULD MOST DEFINITELY READ AGAIN JUST TO FEED INTO MY DELULU AND BELIEVE IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN. 🩷✨

Forbidden lovers. It took awhile for the spice to develop but once it did, it was pretty good. I liked this book but I knew where it was going from about page 100. The ending, while predictable, did make me happy.
