Wow this is the most unique concept for a book I’ve ever read, and so uniquely dark and disturbing. I was very unsatisfied with the ending and felt there were way too many loose ends. The descriptive writing is amazing but I wish the author pulled it in a little, in some places it felt more confusing than helpful when scenes were over described. The first part of the book was very slow and then super fast at the end, I think maybe we could have
heard from Lucian’s pov much earlier so it could be like back and forth?
Huge trigger warning for self harm/suicide, sexual assault, and manipulation
