A review by ribbitingreads
The Devil Takes by Fae Quin

dark emotional sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

I am actually conflicted on how I want to rate this book. This is the first book I've finally completed in March, but also this is an extremely heavy book. This is more about an omega's journey on recognizing abuse (not by the love interest) than it is erotica or romance. I look forward to the second part of these series and I'm hoping it will be a little bit happier than this one was.
