"How long would it take before Senami felt secure in who he was?"
the book introduces us to Senami and his desperate attempt to change his destiny.
I don't want to spoil it because I'm the first person posting a review but it was a page turner and I was sad it finished too quickly.
As always, Yejide is an auto buy for me and she did not disappoint.
