It’s been years since watching the anime and going back and reading the manga brings back many memories. The art style is stunning and I still really like the concept of this story.

I just liked the pig.

all the casual sexual assault (groping etc) really ruined a lot for me…

Initiation by Alethea Faust

3.5

My excuse for reading this: tiktok made me curious.

Yeah idk, not the most amazing book, but definitely some of the better smut I read in a novel. The magic system an interesting concept, but I’m not sure I want to explore it beyond this book. It also has some plot, amazingly. Nothing extraordinary, but also not bad. I did grow a little bored at times though. Idk how that happened considering the content but here we are.

Idiots-to-lovers at its finest. Dear god I loved these idiots even though they were incredibly stubborn to let themselves be happy. They have so much chemistry and are so good for each other. They filled each others gaps and made each other see their worth and I want to weep with how sweet they are (if they are not having a moment of being the biggest idiot). 
An autistic, demisexual, fanfiction loving vampire is everything I ever needed apparently. Love to see that kind of representation. And the chronic pain representation was also excellent. 
I enjoyed this book so much.

This book leaves me conflicted about how to feel about it. There are fantastic ideas, character elements and world building in this. However, I was never hooked. Something about the way this story was written left me feel detached from it.
