Okay, to start off: I dunno if it was just my online copy or just in general but this book needed more trigger warnings. Do I understand it’s a book about hell and demons? Yes. But damnit I never needed detailed descriptions about self harm and the itch of it. That was one of the most triggering things I’ve ever read. I was so ready to give this book 5 stars until that. And it was so unnecessary!!
Overall, this book was fucking fire. It’s such a unique plot with some really interesting characters and ideas plus the surprises actually surprised me sometimes. Like even the ones I expected I still gasped aloud at how they were revealed. And the ending is so perfect! Like it’s such a strong book. I loved how many characters you got to watch and how their stories interacted and I adored how much Pey changed throughout it. It’s such a good dark book I just can’t see myself ever owning a book with self harm in it at this point in my life.
I’d still recommend it, but while being wary.
