My first read for the 2024 Trans Rights Readathon!

I really enjoyed this book! I love these characters so much especially Remy. Remy is a such a wonderful character I was instantly attached to him. His struggles with his past, feeling as though he owes his father everything, the way he feels that no one loves him without needing something from him in return. My heart hurt for him immensely. 

The only reason I’m not giving this book 5 stars is because of Zidan and Remys back and forth. How many times were really necessary to try and put something between them? I get it, in a way, it benefited Zidan and Remys characters to show some of their biggest flaws but at the same time it was kinda frustrating to watch it happen multiple times. 

Overall I really enjoyed this book and I cannot wait to read the sequel!

I enjoyed a lot of this book, probably most of it but in general I just felt like it was too long, there were some sections that dragged on for way longer than needed. Parts of the plot were a bit predictable but I don't think of that as something entirely negative, the author planted the seeds for those twists and in general I enjoyed the characters and their dynamic, so overall a good book.

Ok so I really enjoyed parts of this. The problem is the main character kills me. He's so determined to have everyone dislike him and to take the blame for everything. It doesn't matter how many times people say "I'm not mad at you" he's like "I know you're mad and hate me now." Boy get it together. Take it from an elder emo. The side characters are so good though and the politics and the horror. Its just Remy fucking mopey ass Pendergast.

this book was fantastic! def a read I couldn't put down and one that invaded my thoughts when I was doing other things. the main characters are all so lovable and the chemistry they had together is just so good. I loved the pacing of the book, so much happened but it didn't feel rushed. the world building is easy to follow but also very in depth. the big "twist" wasn't really a surprise, but I honestly like it that way because it made me anticipate the characters finding out! plus, there were plenty of small plot twists throughout that jerked me around. I'm looking forward to the sequel!
