Ok I am not prepared to review this. But here goes. If I was rating on pure enjoyment, I would give this sh!t a 4.5 ⭐s. I loved it. I bring dishonor on my family, but I am just a trash can of cliche fangirl nonsense for this book. However, I had to dock because there is some problematic stuff going on here. And I'm not talking about the SA, although PHEW ya girl had to take a breather there for a moment after that. There was some language at the beginning that I did NOT appreciate, and fatphobia throughout, which I'm reasonably certain does not get better, since why would we care about fat peoples feelings? Lolz. But alas. I am taking a brief novella break and then diving into book two because I am a chaos goblin and I live for white men's medieval European nonsense fantasy, I guess.
Graphic: Death, Rape, and Violence
Moderate: Ableism, Incest, and Slavery
