leazehnder's review against another edition

dark tense fast-paced

2.25

Idk what to think of this book. It was tense and incredibly boring at the same time. I thought it had more thriller aspects in it, like in verity. But this one had waaaay too much smut for a book in this genre. This thing with the main characters saying weird phrases without context just got more cringe every time. Somehow it still got me hooked, idk how, so I give it 2.25 stars for that.
