no thoughts, just vibes ✨
to be fair, I read this extremely fast and it put me in a great reading mood. So for that alone, I’m appreciative. Plus, I’ve heard so much about it, I HAD TO finally start the series.
If you’ve never read a RH before, then I think it’s a good place to start; it has tension, suspense, funny moments, steamier moments. It has a bit of everything and it’s not overwhelming. So it’s pretty easy to follow! Loved the cliffhanger, it made me pick up the second one immediately. Thank goodness for KU honestly.
I’ve read quite a few RH stories but I still managed to enjoy this one. I mean…is it realistic? Nah, but it’s cool lmao. And I had a fab time reading about gang wars and young people who shouldn’t be that rich out of nowhere. The drama was entertaining too - the revenge plot things were a tad bit childish sometimes tbh but the vibes were immaculate.
P.S: Top guy in this book for me is probably Steele ✨
