I fully understand why everyone is loving this book. And you know what? There were times I was kicking my little feet too. But the amount of pure horniness in this book when the stakes are SO high feels out of place and, if anything, diminishes the incredibly well-crafted tension. Like, we're really going to want to bang right after she wakes up from being unconscious for three days?? Bye.

Am I going to read the second one? Yeah, of course. And I'm happy for all the TikTok girlies who are having a field day with it. Lowkey wish I could like it *that* much too.
