Okay. I have many issues with this book, but I can’t deny that I devoured it. Their chemistry and the spice was incredible, I felt like I was there and it just made so much sense with their characters. I think this is the kind of book where i love-hate the mmc, if i met him in real life i would be absolutely grossed out, but for book material it is perfect. I suspected part of the ending but the way it was done literally physically hurt me. I think the writing is very good. The magic system could use improvements. If you crave fantasy maybe not the best book, but if you want the epitomy of love-hate and doubting your morals enjoyable short read with elements of fantasy, I 100% recommend. It is way too short and I will start the 2nd (that is even shorter???) asap, it’s been a while since i was this affected by a fictional character 😅

Objectively, this is probably around 3.5. Subjectively it made me feel feral, so 4.5. 

I feel as though all feminism left the author’s body while writing this story. 

I was really excited to read this book, cause I love me a lil romatasy, but the story lacked plot, action, and even an actual love story in my opinion. The beginning was a bit of a tease cause it amped up the story to seem like it was going to be really good, but by the end, it simply sucked major butt. 

I felt like the author took all the romantasy tropes and fit them into this book rather than focusing on a unique plotline and an actual STORY. Seriously, we had: Enemies to lovers, “who did this to you”, jealousy, one bed, and of course, a FMC constantly being called small, weak, and frail training to be a warrior for some goddamned reason???? 

The two main characters made no sense together and they lacked a lot of depth. They fell in lust, not love. The possessiveness of the MMC was really unappealing and I really didn’t like the way he treated her like she was literally an object. I also didn’t like the way she was totally happy to be treated that way by him. Neither of them really had any personality that was redeemable in my opinion. Their entire storyline was about smut and possession and I just don’t jive well with that. 

This book was a prime example of an author sacrificing their own plot lines for more and more smut - which, by the end, was actually getting boring and repetitive. 

I understand how this book could be somebody’s cup of tea, but it sure as hell wasn’t mine.

As you may be able to tell, I was not a fan. Dunno if I’ll read the next one. I might, just cause it’s quite small and I wanna reach my reading goal for the year lol 

This was a fast, engaging read. It was spicy and slightly dark. Parts made me annoyed but there was logic to it so at least it wasn't because of bad writing. The ending pissed me off though, grr.
