OMG, this thing must have been sent to me from the heavens. I would give up my soul to be able to read this book for the first time again. I just cant really explain it, it drew me in, it kept me interested, waiting for the build up, the problem the everything was done so well Its just amazing I cant believe I have to wait for the third book.

This book should be written in the history books all over the world.

It's slow to read for the first 2/3 of the book, it starts twisting and turning after that and the end leaves the reader a bit bewildered and anxious about the next book. Not her best, good. Hoping that the rest of the series improves. Still excessive use of the word F--- which is fine but it's like a word just discovered by a child and is somehow used at least once a page. 

Severe lack of diversity.

Sarah just loves to give us emotional trauma and plot twists after plot twists and cliffhangers. I can't wait for her next book. 
This book just shows how talented she is. With her diversity in characters and how she delivers character trauma makes you relate to the characters. 
This book was a mixture of smut, awesome world building, plot was out of this world (if yk yk) everything was amazing. I must say this series should be highly recommended.
