Giana’s beautiful writing can make even the darkest story touching and poetic
A lot of this book was heavy and difficult to read but it was balanced by beautifully emotional moments and eventual justice and satisfaction
Funnily enough I found the romance the weakest part of this story. I would have liked to see more of the emotional connection develop between Lex and Luna. The beginning of their relationship seemed very lust-driven with the deeper feelings seemingly coming out of nowhere. The payoff, however, was definitely there
