The spice level is off the charts and there is a TW at the beginning of the book. Picture this: House of 1000 Corpses meets Saw meets Porn and you have this book. I did find it interesting and found myself intrigued but it and wanting to know more of what happened. The ending was good and unexpected as well. If you can get past the TWs, then I recommend this one to you.

To put it plainly, I don’t know why this novella exists. Many fans of the series urge newcomers to read Satan’s Affair before reading Haunting Adeline “to avoid spoiling the twist.” I disagree. The novella was published between the release of books 1 and 2- long after Haunting’s social media virality. The “twist” isn’t a twist at all, simply Sibby’s most identifiable trait (and the punchline of every scene she’s in). The upcoming 2 novels starring Sibby as the lead render Satans Affair little more than a rushed exposition dump.
The most damning strike against Satan’s Affair is its own prose. While Sibby’s point of view is a nice break from Adeline and Zade’s grating internal monologue, it comes with its own problems. I tried and failed not to notice the writer behind the curtain, but the authors overwhelming presence in the narration completely broke my immersion in the story. I didn’t read Sibby’s thoughts and feelings- the writer told them to me, and explained exactly how to feel about them. The constant shift between first person present and past tense at random intervals was also extremely distracting.
Even though Satan’s Affair is full to the brim with blood, guts, and gore , it lacks the tooth and grit needed to get me to buy what it’s selling.

I also loved the meeting between Zade and Sibby. I can't wait to start the connecting duet to this book and read more about Zade and to see more of Sibby even just for a little bit. Reading this book only makes me more excited to read haunting and hunting Adeline than I already was.
I honestly wasn't sure if I'd like this book or not but it was absolutely amazing. Yeah it was quite graphic and can be very difficult to read some parts of it but I absolutely loved it.
Definitely a 5 star read for sure and I'd highly recommend it to those who are able to stomach and withstand the graphic content. Definitely recommend checking the trigger/content warnings.
