TW- Mutilation, Poisons, Brutal Killings.

Being my favourite trope regardless if it comes in the shape of a movie, TV show or book; I am ashamed to say that this is my very first Enemies to Lovers read.

Veronica Roth' s CARVE THE MARK comes at us with a whole new galaxy which gives people of the planets power though the Current Steam that surrounds the galaxy. The plot is centered around one planet divided into two terrains; the harsh cold of Thuve and the ocean terrain of Shortet; the two countries who for years have been in a cold war.

The story starts with Akos- a Thuve citizen who gets taken by the enemy. Shortet is an unrecognised nation state governed by a dictator with a secret weapon- his sister Cyra who's current gift is the ability to summon pain to herself and others- finds herself forced by her brother to accept Akos- due to his current gift which gives Akos the ability to nullify others current gifts.

There is betrayal - for what Enemies to Lovers trope would be complete without it? - forming of unlikely alliances, one of which leads to a truly epic love story combined with an incredibly detailed adventure.
