Savages
by Natalie Bennett
4.1/5 stars! There probably has never been a more accurate description of the devil himself. In a post apocalyptic world Romero and Calista never learned the meaning of the word love, but their madness is drawn to one another's depravity. Romero is the devil himself laced with malice who saved Calista from the light by showing her the beauty in the dark. Calista is the only one who can paint Romero's black soul with her colorful chaos. A united goal leads these two to kill and f*ck their way to revenge, leaving a trail of blood and bodies in their wake. Even the devil needs love, and his kind of love will push you straight into madness.
Let me start with the prologue because the author warns you from page one that this isn't a fairytale, and this love is so dark it will blot out even the brightest of lights. Of course me being me, the prologue had me all in from page one! I loved their messed up kind of love because I honestly can't see these two souls with anyone else but each other. It's mess-up, but their crazy was literally molded for one another. "The powerful frequency between us had our souls f*cking before we even touched." From chapter one the flames of darkness draws you right in. Their story is full of revenge killings, unhinged torture, and intense mind numbingly deviant f*cking (There is no other word because it is so far from love even f*cking is too sweet of a word for what these two do). There are just a few issues I had with the book. One being at times the story was a bit choppy, and the story seemed to be flying apart in complete chaos rather than neatly unfolding, but I suppose in a sense that fits in with these characters perfectly as well. The cover is also not my favorite cover. I know you're not suppose to judge a book by its cover, but I think that was one of the biggest factors on why it has been sitting in my TBR pile for so long.
If you enjoy something completely messed up and two mad minds beautifully interlaced with one another, than this might be the read for you! There is a lot of religious and cult elements as well. It does end on a cliff hanger, and reader should be aware that there are a lot of potential triggers in the book. Amongst the triggers, the sex scenes are truly twisted, and if you are not ready for a book this dark, they might fall on the side of cringe worthy at times. There is nothing sweet about this book, because together these two are nothing short of savages.
