"Soulmates forged in fire, under the watchful gaze of Satan’s mocking eyes."
This book has some seriously dark themes, and it's definitely messed up, but it was so good. The use of literary symbolism to connect it to Alice In Wonderland was great. Sure, a lot of the comparisons were obvious, but they were done really well. I absolutely love a good revenge story, and this checks all of the boxes. The villians were 100% evil, and absolutely deserved what they got. I adored the Dolly version of Ellis, even if she scared me a bit. 🤣 She's a bonafide baddie, but she's scary man. I also need to look up some fanart of their outfits, STAT. They always looked so damn sharp. Check your triggers, but all in all, I totally recommend.
