3 out of 5 ☆’s.

”If you need me to be the villain in your story to get through your day, then I'll accept that. You're not going to be the villain in mine though, no matter how hard you try.”

I am so glad that we were able to see some of Oli’s bonds develop in this novel! It was so refreshing to see that some progress was made! :) 

While I was happy with most of the relationship aspects of ”Savage Bonds“, there were parts that I felt could’ve been done a bit better. 

There were some plot points that I believe were executed quite poorly & could’ve used some more foreshadowing / discussion…

For instance — the strange man that Oli starts thinking of that’s associated with the Resistance? Where was the buildup for that in the first novel? I would have loved to see that miniature plot point grow naturally as the story progressed, but instead his entrance into the plot felt so sudden and a bewildering?

TLDR: I hope that we receive more answers + world building + significant relationship development + better communication in the next one!

Brutus + August are the best characters in this series. ♡

Gryphon?! First?! I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Atlas is sus, I don’t trust a guy who does everything for a woman he’s only just met regardless of biological bonding or w/e. North is warming up, and Gabe is the ideal guy.
