3.5 stars. This started out really strong. I love descriptive imagery. But not a whole lot happens. And I wish we had more background information about Auren and Midas’ relationship. Like how did they get to this point?
But I’m interested in the story, and I’ve heard the books get better and better so here’s hoping.

I struggled for the first 100 or so pages. I wanted to give up and never come back to this book, but I forced myself and the second half of the book hooked me up. I feel now I need to read the rest of the series. The plot was for me a bit predictable but well written. 4 stars because of those first pages that just made me cringe and I was forcing myself to read it.

I loved the way this series was written. I live for the romance in this.

This was so good & I didn’t even realize how far into the book I was until I was almost finished!! I was ENGROSSED.

It started off with me wondering if I even wanted to finish this book but I’m really glad I stuck with it. Not much happens until the last ~30% and then things started moving. It left on a good cliffhanger and I can’t wait to get through the next book to have some of these questions answered!

challenging dark mysterious sad tense fast-paced

This book took me out of my reading slump. I really liked it, ut was dark and i hope some things wil be talked about in the next book. The plot twists were so good and i don't know at all how the serie is going to progress. I can't waite to read the rest of the series.
