Didn't think I would squeeze in one more book before the new year and yet here we are 4.5 hours from 2024 and behold I finished a book.
I was adamant that I would not pick this book up, I was all I won't like it, it sounds like all other YA fantasies, it's not going to be my cup of tea, why would I subject myself to another hyped TikTok book...I WAS WRONG!!!! WHY WHY did I not pick it up sooner. Guys, I devoured this book in a matter of 4 hours. 4 HOURS! I couldn't put it down, I even kicked my hubby out of the living room because I was in tense reading mode.
What can I say that hasn't already been said, the writing style is beautiful, the story moves smoothly, the characters are dimensional and have so much passion and characteristic, the FRICKEN ENDING!!!! I am so glad that Ruthless Vows came out on December 26th, I don't know if I could wait months to get the sequel. I don't know how my heart move on after reading that.
Is this review all over the place and makes absolutely no sense (and to think I have a degree in linguistics and literature), absolutely! Should you still go pick this up, YES! YES YOU SHOULD!
