I genuinely didn’t think I’d love this book as much as I did. It was truly one of the best written books I’ve read so far this year. The grimdark story telling and the gothic fantasy setting was something I didn’t know I liked so much until I read this book. I honestly can’t think of anything wrong with it. 

This book has definitely opened myself up to reading more from Ava Reid, so I’m hoping to dive into A Study in Drowning next. 

P.S Sevas is my now one of my all time favorite book boys, he’s just the embodiment of perfection. The romance in this book was just done so beautifully and done in a way that was tasteful, since both characters has been through certain traumas.
