It’s my second time reading a Nyla. K book and it safe to say that ive found a new auto read author for me. This book was complex but well done( the plot). The only reason why I didn’t give it a higher rating is because it was kinda became repetitive at some point (iykyk) but I still enjoyed it. 

Ps: this is a dark book so read at your own risk 🙃

The beginning of the book was actually really good and I was hooked but then idk it kinda became repetitive and I got bored. I didn’t feel the chemistry between the main characters when they were older compared to when they were younger. Idk if it’s the book that I didn’t like or the writing. I’ll have to read a few of LJ Shen’s book first before I make my conclusions
