Special thanks to @libro.fm & @hachetteaudio for my ALC‼️

I started this one as a buddy read and just so happened to be one of the buddies that didn’t finish reading it with the group. It took me a month but I finished and was happy I did because the ending was action-packed and made reading it worth while in the END. Yup it took until the end for things to get good because it was up and down all throughout.

It wasn’t a bad book  just moved too slow for me to stay engaged. Not to mention I don’t remember much but it explores themes of survival, trust, self-sacrifice, and the desperate measures one will take to find a loved one. 

Kidan’s character annoyed me a lot because she made irrational decisions out of anger. Her sister was missing I get it but the girl was drawing to much unnecessary attention and I was so over her hatred and aggression towards Susenyos. But the truth surrounding June’s disappearance has me curious about book 2 just to see what’s going to unfold between her and Kidan. 

Overall, the book was okay it was the ending that piqued my interest the most. But the plot was unpredictable and the magical atmosphere, diversity, tension between characters, and world building was great. If you love dark academia fantasy, vampires, or enemies to lovers you’ll enjoy reading this book.
