Quill is an acquired taste.
I’m sick because as a Jatoria stan, this book didn’t hit for me and I really wanted it to. 😔🤦🏾♀️
Here’s my pros:
Quill loved Niecey down from day 1. Let’s be clear…the Brasi family are all equally crazy and Quill was no exception. He moved swift and with precision when it came to getting and keeping Niecey. It started a lil rocky due to him psyching her out, but when his plan was set in motion, where was she gonna hide? He stood on business and he supported both her and her brother. Niecey of course had to learn to let him in and not sabotage receiving her blessing regardless of the few hurdles they had to jump.
Cons:
I don’t in any shape or form get down with cannibalism. That part of the book was difficult for me to push past. Perhaps it skewed my outlook on the book in its entirety, but I don’t believe it did. I literally had to block out the thought of it just to push through to the end. I love a good unhinged, powerfully dark lover. Yet, every time he kissed Niecey, my only thought was, “Girl, you have no idea what he’s done with that mouth!” I wasn’t just morally disgusted (and I read some pretty dark things), I was physically disgusted. 🤢🤮
There were also a few scenes I felt Jatoria missed an opportunity to showcase her talent for colorful words. It was like she cut the scene too quickly and left more to be desired.
That’s me though. If you can stomach it…give it a go!
