This book really was not what I expected (in a good way… I think), and I did not expect the twist!!! I’ve read other dark romances that didn’t have as much plot. This one is actually interesting, and I was invested in learning more details about the murders and killer. Now patiently waiting for the second book to be available at my library.

Me reading something deranged, delusional, and disturbing: OK NOW WE'RE TALKING!!!

I hope that this series keeps going well--I'm going to pick up the second book immediately after I'm done writing this review. And I never know how to go about talking about my love for dark romance books like these (Marrow, The Mindf*ck Series, etc.) without sounding unhinged. I think I just love that so many of the main characters, like the main character Halen in this one, are women whose life was disrupted by tragedy, and now they have a darkness in them. And the books aren't about punishing that darkness or trying to bring them back to the light, but the books are more about embracing the new trajectory their life is going in. Obviously these books are extreme and feature murder and killing but I love the overall...vibe, I guess. I don't know what I'm trying to say. I just know that my favorite relationships in my life are those that celebrate who I am, as I am, and not who I could be if I were a better/more positive survivor. I've been let down by a lot of people because I do have depressive episodes and I exhibit traits of, well, a victim. Some people really don't like hearing about me being sad or traumatized, and they care more about me being a "survivor". Anyway. Siri, play "That's the Way It Is" by Celine Dion!

This series.....just wowwwww. It's a roller coaster. And I read all 3 books in 3 days. They were that good. They are deeply philosophical and really made me think about things. It also came at a good time in my life where I'm doing a lot of introspection and staring into the abyss.
