This was both lighter and darker than I expected, in really good ways. It’s definitely deeper. More intense than your average romance by a long shot, but it also wasn’t a sob story and it was much more fun than you might expect for a book with some quite dark themes. I really loved both characters and their arcs felt well-developed and earned. The one thing that clanked for me a little bit was lack of clear perspective in some chapters, where the POV character was bouncing around by the minute - I hate that. But otherwise, well written and worth reading!
