Loathing You
by Amina Khan
“Hate me, despise me, loathe me. I don't fucking care what you feel, as long as you only feel it for me."
This book is a sapphic bully romance that consumed me entirely. It's all I can think about, it's all I can feel, I live and breathe for this book alone. Instant 5 ⭐️. Nothing compares. The character development- The growth- Touch her and you die vibes- The subtle soft moments- UGH WOMEN>>>>
Juliette and Adaline were so violent and passionate and all-consuming together, and I LOVED THAT. The way Juliette was literally touch her and you die when she herself didn't know why she was so obsessed with Adaline? I LIVED FOR THAT. All the protective and possessive moments the both of them had. their dynamics gave me L I F E.
"Adaline Emery is mine. Her mind. Her face. Her body. Every single thought, every single desire, and every single fear is mine. All of her, at all times, everything belongs to me and only me. She might be her own person, but she's my person too.
My girl."

Juliette Kingston can run me over with her beautiful car, spit on me, choke me, step on me, literally kill me and I will kiss her shoes for her and thank her profusely.
"I can change her" Well I don't want to because I love and accept her just the way she is, even if she's a raging rude, privileged, bullying, bitch, she's just as iconic as her delicious pasta.
Seeing Juliette grow as a person while not necessarily changing who she is was a beautiful sight. Having internalized homophobia is such a real issue and Juliette overcame it well. Adaline was so down to earth, seriously that babe has the patience of a saint. I could never.
I love sapphics.
Also, the smut? OMG, LITERALLY PERFECT. Again, I always find the smut very sweet and fluffy in sapphic books, which I am not saying I don't like, but I want to see a little rougher sex between women. Like yes show me the desperate passion, the push and pull, the 'if I don't touch you rn I might not be able to breathe'. I loved.
“I am soaking in the feeling of having all her attention right now, with her hands violently tugging at me. She's reaching for me, even if it's to hurt me—she's still reaching for me and I can't get enough of it."
I took a break from bully romances because I felt like the bully never did enough begging for forgiveness, but boy oh boy am I glad I read this book. The apology was done beautifully- with time, showing the regret and guilt with soft love, all the while still being unapologetically rude to each other. The pacing with that was perfect. It was so well done, and I truly cannot applaud the author enough for that. AND THE AUTHOR IS 19???? I am bowing down to you queen.
All in all, I gobbled this book right up.
p.s I would have loved an epilogue 😩
