The Damned by Renée Ahdieh
4.0

“I have loved you in both my lives, I will love you in the rest to come.”

Renée will forever have a chokehold on me.

We didn't get enough Celine scenes. I get it it's the damned which revolves around Sebastian, but still would've loved to see more of my girl.
Renee deciding to give the court of lions their own pov's in this book was an intriguing choice, one I appreciated a lot. Jae and Odette's POV's were everything I could wish for.

I have to knock down a star because the constant inner monologues continued for the duration of the book were quite annoying and not acceptable. At times there were more inner talking than action or even a dialogue and I think that's one of the disadvantages and weaknesses of this book.

Sebastian needing some tough love throughout the whole book.
Me:


This book had no business to entice such feelings in me.


Odette....

It's here!!!!

I feel like I'm going to go crazy or get really old before my copy arrives. I ain't living in Pluto.

I just ordered my copy. I'll be waiting a month or so till it arrives but it's totally worth it. Can't wait to devour this book.
