I don't even know what to say.  

This book made me feel. 

It made me rage, lust, hurt, lust, laugh, love, and yes, more lust.

The group dynamic while sometimes dysfunctional and painful was always beautiful. 

All the flaws of these characters were explored instead of glossed over or shied away from and it only made me connect with each of them more.

TWs should absolutely be checked but if you're someone who finds enjoyment in the darker things you need to read this book.

5.0

This book.  

It moved me to laughter, to tears, to anger. It kept me hooked from start to finish, and I fell so deeply in love with these characters. 

The audiobook really took it to another level. The duet style narration by two very skilled voice actors and the inclusion of music at specific, impactful moments was so different from any other audiobook I've ever read along with. 

I would enthusiastically recommend Till Death to any one who enjoys romantasy, and I will absolutely be revisiting this story again myself because I just cannot say a permanent goodbye to these characters.
