This book could have been so much better without the rape scene. They destroyed the hole story. Killian wasn't likeable enough to make up for that....

I don't know how to feel. Killian is insane. I don't know why his family named him KILL-IAN and did not expect him to be a physcopath. I enjoyed hearing from the families. I loved Reina, Asher, Levi, and Astrids's POVs. I also liked the complicated family dynamic between Killian and his family. I enjoyed Glyndon as a character, some might say she is boring, but I like how calm and easy going she is. I also love Brandon, he is the only KIng out of the boys that does not need help. The heathens and the elites are a little extreme (why are we trying to k*ll people on college grounds). The other characters seem intresting. I am still conflicted about Killian as a whole and his relationship with Glyndon. He had some sweet moments though.

There is a lot to unpack here.

This book contains so many triggers, so before reading PLEASE consider them all. I understand why some readers find it extremely difficult and even DNFed it.

The reason why I personally find the book a "4 ⭐" interesting is the physiological approach and understanding of both FMC and MMC. Although most readers will describe the book as a dark romance or even a smut book, I find it more almost like a textbook for a lot of neurodivergent personalities, and mental issues. From the sociological and anthropological side, I'm impressed with the way the author described social media and the false perception it offers to society (and mostly to teens and young adults).

I will continue reading the series as I'm wondering if the author will continue with the same approach (discussing mental health as one of the most important issues of modern society).
