ainsklass 's review for:

The Poisoner by I.V. Ophelia

2.5

dark mysterious tense medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: No

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: No

Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I thoroughly enjoyed the first 50% of this book. While there are some blurred lines when it comes to consent, the witty banter and chemistry between two main characters is very entertaining. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. But then plot hole after plot hole emerges and everything becomes unnecessarily complicated. Very strong trigger warning for a graphic and superfluous SA scene near the end, please read with caution.
