Not a super big fan of the whole kidnapping premise, but still has the same similar charm as the first book.

Fun and easy to read, sometimes so outrageous it's funny. Love that it's written to appease the female gaze. Sometimes (often) cringy, but still enjoyable. Wasn't a fan of the biggest fan breeding kink, but it does establish a motive.

Went by fairly slowly with a lot of telling rather than showing. I was rather slow, and sometimes it felt like shock factors were used to maintain reader attention. The pace didn't really pick up until the last 25%. I stuck with it because I heard other people say it was more of a foundational book for the rest of the series.
