Very enjoyable, almost seems like both books could’ve been one with each being a different part. Finished both in one sitting each

Ok absolutely binged this duology and definitely preferred the first one - this one gets wayyyy darker which was a lot at times and just overall this was a lot but still definitely really liked this series despite it being super tucked up lol

first of all this book had NO RIGHT to be that good. that’s it. it was amazing!! my brain is mushy and i can’t form a cohearent thought because all i’m thinking about is cole blackwell. i hate men but DAMN that man is IT! woooooooooooooo weeeeeeeeeee yessssssssssss 

sophie lark did it yet again when she wrote There Is No Devil. i want to write a well thought out review but that’s just not me. i want to scream and rant and rave about the books i read and that’s what i’m doing! the things i would let cole blackwell do to me...

This book had more of a thriller vibe to it and I loved it. Mara is crazy and Cole is a literal psychopath but they are made for each other. Kinda love that they’re obsessed with each other. Once again, check trigger warnings
