Overall Rating: 4.5 ⭐️
Narration: 5 ⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️.5/5

5 ⭐️ for the narration - they both did amazing, but Joe Arden just went above and beyond! When Aero went on his psychotic rants - Joe really brought the character to life. You could feel the crazy coming through your headphones. 

4 ⭐️ for the plot. Deeply dark and disturbing, but I ate this book up! Definitely check TWs on this because it’s A LOT. The plot got lost with all the spice towards the middle but it picked back up and I actually liked the premise of the story. Cults have always fascinated me, and I loved Briony’s journey to learning the truth and stepping into her power. 

4.5 🌶️ for the spice. Holyyyy was it spicy and it was good spice too. Aero was so unhinged, some of the things he would say were just like what the actual F. He’s def not sweet in the sheets (lots of degradation/humiliation) so again check TWs. Oh and did I mention his 🍆 is pierced? There are a few scenes that will leave rent free in my head 🙃. 

I 1000% recommend listening on audio. You won’t regret it!
