"i used to believe i didn't have a soul, but it turns out, i just needed you to fill it up."
i'm not going to lie, with all the hype that everyone gave landon king, specifically, i thought his book would have lived up to his individual hype. don't get me wrong, i did actually love this, but i didn't love it like i expected to. but i love landon and mia together; they are each other's matches, and their love and chemistry helped each other heal in their respective ways.
mia, my mute girl, went through such a traumatic event in her younger years, that caused her to go mute for elevenyears. finding out who wad behind her trauma was so unexpected, and like every other legacy of gods book, i didn't even think to guess correctly. to have landon learn sign language for her without even asking him, and even before they became 'a thing,' was by far one of the best things. he reminded me of my man ryan shay (the right move) in that way, and that made my love for him to grow. mia's friendship with bran is probably my favorite friendship in the series this far, and i loved how he had her back no matter what, and helped her learn things about landon that he wouldn't have probably told her on his own.
"i want your soul, little muse."
landon king. mr. untouchable (because the heathens would lose their gfs lmao) and everyone's favorite. unlike everyone else, he's not my fav (sorry, my cray cray has my heart), but i don't hate him. not one bit. despite his antisocial and narcissistic tendencies, he tried his absolute hardest to be deserving of mia, even when her brother and cousins disapproved of him. even when her twin sister disapproved of him. landon went on numerous suicide missions to be with mia, and that's only admirable in my eyes. he's also a funny character because he quite literally does not give a single fuck, and relishes in everyone's failures LMAO.
anyways, even though this wasn't my fav, i still had a fun time reading this, and i can finally get to my most anticipated in the series, god of fury 😩
