This book had me on the edge of my seat. The last one in the series was a little bit slow to read, but this one was moving from start to finish.

"Do you believe monsters are born, or made?"

5 ⭐️

There is just so much that happens in this book that makes it hard for me to wrap my head round all of it, but it probably makes this one my favourite of the lot. Just gives me a whole lot of feelings.

This quote also hits home:

"We're not whores for your men to use."
"You are sacred vessels," the duke said. "It is an honor to be chosen?”
"I find that a very male thing to assume."

TWs: torture, ableism, murder, detailed depictions of violence, human trafficking

Enjoyment - 4

Characters - 3.5
Atmosphere - 3.5
Plot - 3
Ending - 3.5
Style - 2.5 
The writing in this one was a bit more cheesy than the last ones at the "big" moments, but it's fine. This feels a bit like a fantasy soap opera and I'm okay with that.

Overall - 3.5
