ACH!! This cursed book!! 😍😍😍

Absolutely no one warned me that orc mountain had the potential to make me tear up!! 😭 You monstrous beasts! 😈

This one may not be for everyone bc there are def some brutal moments, discussion of past trauma, & some gRaPhiC sex scenes that nearly drown you ☔️ BUT I’ll be damned if this book didn’t *bodily* grab me & my heart by the throat!!!! 🥵

The story, the character growth, the quantity AND quality of steam, the orc culture & community, even the freaking orc mountain all won me over!!! 🥰🥰🥰

If you can make it through the first 1/2, I promise the payoff is *MWAH* 👩🏻‍🍳💋

I can confirm that this is an essential required read for monster lovers & fu€ker$ across the realms!! ✨
