a really cool book about deeply horny individuals and some sort of presence in an old chapel
the setting and general atmosphere was really nice, reading this over the course of a rainy week was a splendid decision
the smut was surprisingly great, 9/10 sex
the cliffhanger ending pissed me off and docks a whole star from the rating. i get it but also come on!
all in all a fun time and I will be reading the next book. yay for a fun start to my 31 days of Halloween, and for a nice (sort-of) close out of Sapphic September
edit after reading book 2: stop while you can… you will NOT like where any of this leads i promise 😭
