Soul Eater is one of those books that sinks its claws in. The world is bleak and horrifying, every new place Danny and Wyn pass through feels wrong. This world is eerie. The journey they go on, the characters they meet along the way, all of it is fascinating, but there’s always this undercurrent of dread running beneath the surface. And then, cutting through all of that darkness, is their connection, fierce, magnetic, impossible to ignore. Wyn and Danny love each other so beautifully. The attraction between them burns like fire. Every interaction is thick with tension, every step closer feels both dangerous and inevitable. I devoured this book in one sitting, completely consumed by the mix of horror and desire. 

By the end I wasn’t just excited, I was begging for the next book in the series.
