0.25
- i regret every single second i spent on this book and on it's previous installment
- cannot express the sheer frustration
- it tries its hardest to build on the flimsy ass foundations from the first one so of course it all falls apart
- a literal drag
- the main romance is completely unfounded, it's just like why? what is the reason??
- they have absolutely no reason to be attracted to each other, or to even trust each other at this point, they're just 2 stupid fucking hets so why don't we throw them together in a weird semblance of a romance
- the characters are so flat please, they don't have character, or personalities, they're just names on a piece of paper at this point
- also where are the fucking content/trigger warnings??
Moderate: Addiction, Blood, Death, Drug abuse, Drug use, Genocide, Gore, Slavery, and Violence
