I don’t particularly explore this genre a lot, but this wasn’t pretty bad. The world-building was creative, and the brutal intricacies of mobs were very interesting. The slowburn, enemies to lovers tropes certainly fit the narrative of the writing perfectly well. The tension between Tristan and Morana was invigorating, to say the least. I’ve never read a book with so much butterflies and tension like a string pulled so taut in my entire life. You’d never know what to expect with a kiss or a quick fuck in this book. Overall, the plot isn’t totally that bad, it is actually quite unique and well laid out, to say the least. My only comment is that the prose was overly descriptive and extremely repetitive. I swear this book could’ve been shorter if the author had Grammarly. I’m also noting that I do not need to hear that Tristan has blue eyes and smells like whiskey and sin every two pages.
