Mixed feelings here. I enjoyed it, but I wouldn’t say it’s one of my favorites. There were aspects of it and themes that were explored that I loved diving into, but other parts took away from the experience from being a 4 or 5 star review for me.
Things I loved:
Things I loved:
- Enemies to lovers: Kidan and Susenyos were actual enemies and the lovers segment was like “reluctant” love, so I liked that.
- Humanity: this discourse around grief, forgiveness, and humanity were well done and thought provoking.
- Vampires characterization: the sun glows off of the dranic compared to Kidan seeking darkness is a really cool juxtaposition.
Things I didn’t enjoy:
- Kidan’s violent impulses are sooo much, but at least she’s honest about how bad it is, and that when she says she must get rid of all evil, she at least includes herself.
- I’m not a fan of pushing the plot forward by piling one bad decision onto another until it’s so wrapped up that there’s no recovering from it.
- While the romance was true enemies to lovers, Kidan and Susenyos went back and forth on whether or not they trusted each other SO often that it just got too confusing with how hot/cold it was. I don’t think it was terrible because it made sense for the characters, but it took away/distracted from the story.
Quotes that went hard:
- “Even death can’t resist if you keep flirting with it this much.”
