The characters did a lot of lounging around for being in the middle of a fuckin’ apocalypse. And apparently all you gotta do is recite poetry to stop a dude from spreading the plague.

The end sets up nicely for the next book and im excited to keep on reading. Lucky for me I bought the whole series in one go.
Spoiler
not a 5 star review because I wished there was a way to make sara immortal. Although I understand that the whole point of this book is to understand and appreciate humanity and all that comes with it.Maybe it's that tiny bit of romancer in myself that wasn't completely satisfied by the ending.

This book really got better and better as it went on. A bit of a slow start but wow I couldn’t put it down after 35%! Who knew the four horsemen could be so hot?
Very modern writing style,
Slow burn enemies to lovers, almost felt a bit like a bully romance at first.
Strong character development in both the FMC & MMC.
Magical realism.
I will definitely continue on with these, had me giggling and laughing out loud often, swooning over banter, and smiling like a fool into my kindle. There are some triggers in there so please be sure to check those out beforehand.
Thanks so much to Netgalley and Bloombooks for the ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!
