Thank you to Netgalley & Image Comics for an e-arc of this book!
Alright listen, I absolutely knew what I was signing up for here. This is an erotic thriller so if you don't want to read gorgeously drawn erotica, stay away. The beautiful imagery was absolutely stunning, and my favorite part of the read! Unfortunately, the plot itself was...laughable. But we're not reading this for plot, right? Everyone at the college was extremely horny to the point that there were just intense makeout scenes in the back of every scene where they're just walking through the halls. Everyone is using this new app called "Crave" to fulfill their desires, which are mostly sexual in nature...but the writer clearly doesn't have a background in computer science and the app may as well work off of sunshine and orgasms with the amount of sense The whole thing makes. I wish instead of focusing on the details of this myster ous app the book had focused a little more on character and give them a reason they are all horny for each other besides everyone being unspeakable hot. But alas, it's simply not that kind of book! So go in for the gorgeously illustrated erotica because that is stunning. But don't expect substance anywhere else.
