I’m a parasite who doesn’t belong here.
A woman. A nobody.
An author. Just like him.

Davian
I was a perfectly functioning member of the elite.
A respected professor. A successful lawyer. A good father.
I thought I had everything under control.
But then she entered Maplecrest Law School.
The first woman here.
An ink stain in the eyes of the other professors.

UPDATE: I'M STILL READING IT IDK SOFT DNF WHATEVER WILL LET YOU KNOW IN TWO DAYS😂 GUYS I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DNF BOOKS NO JOKE 😭

Unfortunately I'm gonna have to DNF an ARC for the first time .. 3 books in 1 ( according to description) and the size of this book (1310 pages) as an ARC isn't really ideal, in full transparency If I had known it's 3 books I wouldn't have accepted honestly.. it's truly a shame and I feel bad because the story has some of my favourite tropes💔 maybe I'll give it a go in the future at some point ... All the best to the author (hopefully my first and last dnf of the year )

Many thanks to the author for the early copy

When I applied for the ARC of Unreachable, I knew I was signing up for an emotional read. What I did not expect was for it to be this heavy.

This book has a very blue tone to it. I won’t explain what I mean by that because I think you’ll understand the moment you meet Quill.

Quill’s sadness bleeds through every page from the very beginning. Whether she’s hiding behind books, standing on the edge of a bridge questioning if life is worth living, or trying to convince herself that she’s too broken to be loved, her grief is constant. It never feels like it’s there just for shock value. It becomes a part of who she is, and you feel the weight of it with every chapter.

And then there’s Davian. You can tell from the start that he isn’t untouched by life either. He’s quiet, observant, and somehow always seems to know exactly what Quill needs without trying to fix her. Their first conversation on the bridge stayed with me because it wasn’t some grand romantic moment. It was simply two lonely people finding comfort in someone who finally understood the silence they carried. Their relationship is built through conversations, shared books, quiet moments, and learning that sometimes being seen is the greatest act of love.

I also really appreciated how literature wasn’t just an aesthetic choice in this book. Writing, stories, and books are woven into every part of the narrative. They shape Quill and Davian’s relationship, their identities, and the way they process the world around them.

No amount of reviews can prepare you for just how much this book packs into its pages because she is a chunky one. It isn’t the kind of book you rush through. Every chapter adds another layer, whether that’s family politics, academic politics, buried trauma, or secrets that slowly unravel over time.

If you’re looking for heavy drama, complicated family dynamics, academic politics, emotional trauma, and two deeply flawed characters trying to find pieces of themselves in each other, then this is definitely one to pick up. Joseph Richter had me frustrated every single time he was on the page, and I found myself constantly hoping Quill would finally catch a break.

Just don’t go into this expecting a romance.

Yes, there is romance. Yes, Quill and Davian’s relationship is beautiful. But this is a drama first and a romance second. It explores grief, abuse, mental health, healing, and survival far more than it focuses on swoony moments, and I think that’s important to know before going in.

Thank you so much to Maezos for trusting me with an ARC. It wasn’t an easy read, but it was certainly one that will stay with me.

This book checked every single box for me. An absolute masterpiece 💙

One of my favorite books of the year... and maybe one of my favorite books ever.
This story completely broke my heart. I love forbidden love stories, but this one was on another level. The slow burn was PERFEC!!! Without a doubt the best slow burn I've ever read.I genuinely feel like I left a part of myself between these pages.

There were so many parts of the FMC that resonated with me🥹 her struggles with her mental health truly broke my heart. Im also a sucker for a romantic tragedy and this had it in spades.

INFINITY STARS ∞

I'm a pretty picky reader. In fact, I don't even have a complete top five because I haven't read five books that truly feel worthy of those spots. Then Unreachable came along and claimed my number one spot without a second of hesitation.

At over 1,300 pages, I absolutely flew through this book. Not once did it feel unnecessarily long. Every single page served a purpose, and MAEZOS' writing is simply beautiful. I finished the book with more than 400 highlights, the most I've ever made in a single book.

This is an incredibly emotional and, at times, traumatizing story that should be read with care and an understanding of your own limits. If you're looking for a lighthearted rom-com, this isn't the book for you. This is for readers who want a story that completely wrecks them. I spent my birthday finishing the final section, and I was absolutely sobbing. It's only the second book that has ever made me cry.

Beyond the story itself, the immersive 400+ song playlist is a huge reason this became my favorite book of all time. The novel is already devastatingly beautiful on its own, but the songs MAEZOS chose for each scene elevated the experience to another level. The music made me feel completely consumed by the story.

And if an immersive playlist sounds intimidating because you think you won't be able to read while listening to music, don't worry. The majority of the playlist is instrumental, making it easy to stay fully immersed without distracting from the story. It's one of the most unique and unforgettable reading experiences I've ever had.

Review of advance copy received from Author

ARC ⭐️ 4.75
......♤.......
I am taking away 0.25 stars solely because I was not expecting the end!

First of Thank you, Maezos, for the ARC and for sharing this story with us. Being able to read Quillon and Davian's journey early was such a gift. Their story will stay with me for a long time, and I'm so grateful I got to experience it. Even if you completely shattered my heart in the process. 🤧

No but seriously, what the hell, Maezos?
I finished this book week ago and I still feel emotionally exhausted. I don't think I've fully processed what I just read. My heart hurts. My brain hurts. I miss these characters so much!🤧

Quillon and Davian felt so real that at some point I stopped reading about them and started worrying about them.
Quillon absolutely shattered me. The way she constantly felt like she didn't belong, the way she kept fighting even when everything around her was telling her she shouldn't be there... I felt every bit of that.
And Davian...
God, Davian.
That man spent this entire series breaking my heart in ways I wasn't prepared for. His guilt, his love, his loyalty, his mistakes, the impossible position he was trapped in... I understood him even when I wanted to scream at him.
What got me most was how deeply these two understood each other. Not because they were perfect together, but because they recognized the wounds in each other. They saw the parts nobody else saw.
And that's what destroyed me.
Maezos, you wrote these characters so beautifully that they stopped feeling fictional. I cried for them. I got angry for them. I hoped for them. By the end, it felt like I was losing people I actually knew.

The Maplecrest world was full of corruption, secrets, power, and manipulation, but somehow the thing that hit hardest was the humanity of these characters.
I don't know if "enjoyed" is the right word because this book emotionally beat me up.😭💙
What I do know is that Quillon and Davian are going to live in my head rent free for a very long time.
And honestly?
That's probably the biggest compliment I can give.

“𝚈𝚘𝚞𝚛 𝙸𝚗𝚔. 𝙼𝚢 𝚅𝚎𝚒𝚗𝚜.”


this was an 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 book.
i was captivated from the very first page.
this was also beautiful, funny, ugly, heartbreaking, devastating and extremely heavy.

“𝙄𝙛 𝙄 𝙜𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙟𝙪𝙢𝙥, 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚?”

it tore me up into little pieces, took my heart and didn’t let go.

‘𝑨𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒐 𝑰 𝒇𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒆𝒅 𝟏,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝒑𝒂𝒑𝒆𝒓 𝒄𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒆𝒔.’

but it was worth every emotion felt, every tear shredded, all the heartache. and it’s done with such beautiful and special writing.

I tried as best as I could to make progress in this book, but it’s impossible, far too many slow parts, and unfortunately, with the size of my TBR, I just don’t have that precious time…

1310 pages is just huge….

First I just want to thank the author for entrusting me with an advanced copy of this duet; truly, it means everything and I see you and cannot even begin to fathom the courage and toll that writing and publishing something like this takes.

That being said, this just wasn’t for me. And it had nothing to do with the triggers. I think I would have enjoyed this a lot more without all of the extra plot points, if it was just a beautifully tragic story of two damaged souls finding each other in this crazy world and how they healed each other. So much of the language and prose was so well written, but I felt myself getting distracted by a really unbelievable revenge plot and Nazism. I understand that it is part of a bigger world (one that I have not read) but I felt like it detracted from Quill and Davian’s story. I also will add a disclaimer that I have a lot of friends who are attorneys and the hate towards lawyers really put a bad taste in my mouth. I know they’re not all good people, but wow.
I also felt like the added plot points made this feel messy and chaotic for so much of it, especially as a 1000+ page duet. The characters felt very inconsistent because of it.

Overall, I enjoyed the love story, the mental health rep, the heaviness and emotional response I experience, and the author’s bravery in not shying away from taboo topics, but I feel like too much was added that didn’t feel necessary (again, as someone whose first experience with the author’s work) and that I would have had a much different experience with this if the editing process had been better.

Sometimes stories aren’t meant to give us the ending we want, they give us the ending that feels painfully true.

To be honest, I went into this book expecting heartbreak… but I never expected it to completely turn my world upside down.

While creating this post I found myself crying all over again. I think that says everything about how deeply this story affected me. It wasn’t just emotional it was unforgettable.

Maezos has written something truly extraordinary, and this book is nothing short of a masterclass in storytelling.

Quillon Veritas and Davian Rydell’s story will stay with me for the rest of my life. They felt so incredibly real that I wasn’t just reading about them. I was living every high, every loss, every quiet moment alongside them. I found myself rooting for them with every page, only to have my heart break with theirs time and time again.

This isn’t simply a forbidden romance. It’s a story about grief, mental health, love, sacrifice, old money expectations, German history, and two people who found solace in each other when the world felt unbearably heavy.

I wished with everything in me that they had been given a different ending. But sometimes stories aren’t meant to give us the ending we want and maybe that’s why this one will stay with me forever.

If you’re willing to walk alongside Quillon and Davian through every beautiful and heartbreaking moment, I cannot recommend this book enough.

🖤 Please check the trigger warnings before reading.

Some books captivate you. Some motivate you. Some fascinate you. But this one... it consumed me. Not in a good way, mind you, but in a devastating one. Whether it was painful or beautiful, I still don't know.

Synopsis:

Quillon Veritas, a nineteen-year-old girl trying to survive in a world that will never truly accept or understand her, is on the verge of giving up. Until a stranger promises to give her a thousand reasons to live. What begins as hope soon becomes something that won't let her live and, at the same time, won't let her die in peace. Falling for the one man she was never supposed to have may become both the greatest mistake and the greatest gift of her life... until it isn't.

Review:

"Unreachable" by Maezos is a psychological, suspenseful erotic drama where two deeply broken authors try to survive within a corrupt old-money legal elite buried beneath generations of dark family secrets. It's the kind of story that slowly pulls you into its world until you almost forget your own sanity.

Quillon is a fragile soul trying to exist in a world obsessed with appearances and impossible standards. While I wasn't always a fan of how vulnerable she was, I completely understood why she had become that way. The pain she endured, the neglect she survived, and everything she carried on her shoulders made her heartbreakingly real.

Davian, on the other hand, is a writer who has spent years simply surviving behind carefully maintained appearances. Meeting Quill changes everything. I loved how safe he made her feel, how fiercely he fought for her, and how gently he tried to wash away every scar life had left on her.

One thing I absolutely have to appreciate is the writing itself. Knowing English isn't the author's first language made me admire it even more because the prose was simply breathtaking. I found myself annotating page after page because of how poetic and beautifully written it was. Quill and Davian's emotional connection completely won me over in the beginning. Their understanding of each other felt raw, intimate, and incredibly genuine.

"Every child deserves parents, but not every parent deserves a child."

This quote has always broken something inside me, and this book reminded me of it in every chapter. On the complete opposite end of the emotional spectrum, Davian's relationship with Lara filled my heart with so much warmth. It was one of the healthiest and most beautiful father-daughter relationships I've read in a long time.

The found family element was another highlight. Whether it was Lara, Anthony, Monica, or the people they slowly gathered around themselves, watching them become each other's safe place was incredibly heartwarming.

And that revenge plot? Absolutely satisfying. Watching the men who had abused their power, treated women like objects, and destroyed lives finally face the consequences of their actions was easily one of my favorite parts of the book.

That being said, there were things that didn't quite work for me. The length was the biggest one. This is a very heavy book, and I often felt it could have benefited from being shorter or divided into smaller parts to make the emotional weight easier to process.

With themes like child abuse, suicidal ideation, suicide, self-harm, misogyny, patriarchy, depression, death, and so much more, this is not an easy read. There were nights I genuinely couldn't sleep because I couldn't stop thinking about what I had read.

The romance also became complicated for me as the story progressed. It started out beautifully, but somewhere along the way I found myself struggling with it. Whether it was the significant age gap, the fact that Davian was her best friend's father, or simply knowing the consequences waiting for them, I couldn't fully embrace it the way I wanted to. As the family drama escalated, the romance gradually shifted into the background, which left me feeling slightly disconnected from what had initially drawn me into the story.

The ending completely caught me off guard. As the author said, it was inevitable. But after such a long emotional journey, I couldn't help feeling that the build-up deserved something stronger.

Overall, if you're someone who loves devastating books, emotionally heavy stories, unexpected endings, complex mental health themes, and romances that are meant to unsettle you rather than comfort you, “Unreachable” is definitely worth picking up. Just make sure you check the trigger warnings before going in—this book doesn't pull any punches.

I don’t think there are any words I can possibly string together to explain just how perfect this book is or how much it means to me. I’m forever changed. Aly has altered my brain chemistry and completely changed what I expect from a book. Her creativity and storytelling ability are unmatched. Nothing compares. I’m in utter awe and absolutely gobsmacked by how much this book has become a part of me. Quite literally…I got a tattoo.

Once in a blue moon, you come across a book that just etches itself into your soul…your veins. Unreachable is that book. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to move on from this one.

The meticulousness that went into EVERY piece of this book is like nothing I’ve ever seen from an author. From the marketing, to the artwork, to the interactive playlist, to the actual words…every single piece of it was so thoughtfully crafted. It honestly blew my mind.

Is this book THICC? Yes. But EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER is important and means something. There are no filler chapters here. And honestly, I could have had 100 more, and it STILL wouldn’t have been enough!

🌧️ 𝗘𝗠𝗢𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗗𝗔𝗠𝗔𝗚𝗘 🌧️

My soul was RIPPED from my body. Torn to absolute shreds. My heart was left on the floor, bleeding out. I’m pretty sure they’re both off floating somewhere in Wonderland…but I loved every single second of it.

You are going to go through it…and just when you think you’ve been through enough…you haven’t. So buckle up and get ready for the emotional rollercoaster. So much of Quill resonated with me on such a deep and personal level. Chapter 13…the number 21…the number 3…they’ll never be just numbers to me again.

I’ve read my fair share of emotional books, but I’ve never experienced anything like the emotional pull this one had on me. I still can’t put into words what this book did to me.

🔥 𝗦𝗟𝗢𝗪𝗪𝗪𝗪𝗪𝗪𝗪 𝗕𝗨𝗥𝗡 🔥

SO MUCH YEARNING! SO MUCH ANGST!

This was probably my favorite slow burn of all time. I’m talking a torturous, tension-filled build. In the moment, I was like, BOINK HER ALREADY! But man…the payoff was absolutely worth the wait.

Holy forking shirtballs. I’m talking some of the hottest, most sensual scenes I’ve ever read. I was a heated mess. Panting. Sweating. Feverish. 𝗗𝗔𝗗𝗗𝗬 𝗗𝗔𝗩𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗚𝗢𝗡𝗡𝗔 𝗠𝗔𝗞𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗟𝗔𝗗𝗬 𝗕𝗜𝗧𝗦 𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗟𝗘! (𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘨𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘣𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴 🔋)

⚗️ 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗬 ⚗️

Davian and Quill…the push and pull. The age gap. The hand touches…OH MY GOD, THE FREAKING HAND TOUCHES! It was all the subtle moments for me…the little teases, the intimate conversations, HE BRAIDS HER HAIR! I was so freaking gone for these two. They felt tethered together by a single thread. Ultimate soulmates.

🎶 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰/𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 🎶

Hands down the best interactive playlist that lined up PERFECTLY with every chapter throughout the book. I HIGHLY recommend following every song at the moment it’s intended during your read for maximum emotional impact and damage. I mean…I’ve never seen a playlist so perfectly executed for each specific moment in a book, and to do that for 100+ chapters!? Unheard of. Be prepared for some of your favorite songs to take on a whole new meaning and instantly bring on the feels and tears.

🎬 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗥𝗔𝗠𝗔! 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗟𝗢𝗧 𝗧𝗪𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗦! 🎬

Messy! Messy! Messy! (𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘺) Good luck trying to figure this one out! One of the best psychological dramas I’ve ever read. I got smacked in the face with twist after twist! It kept me on my toes the entire time, and I loved having my mind work overtime trying to piece everything together.

🦋 𝗔𝗹𝘆 🦋

I’m so freaking proud of you for this story, and I’m so honored to have been a small part of it. I truly believe this book is going to change your life, and I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to ARC read for you. I’m just in utter awe of you and your talent.

It’s funny how life works sometimes. Somehow, the universe decided our paths needed to cross, and I’ll forever be grateful that they did. From the moment I stumbled across your page and read the dedication, 𝙏𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙬𝙝𝙤 𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙧𝙖𝙯𝙤𝙧𝙗𝙡𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙨 𝙖𝙨 𝙞𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙬𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙘𝙞𝙜𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙨, I had a feeling this story was going to leave its mark on me, and it absolutely did.

I could honestly keep gushing about this book forever, but I think it’s pretty obvious just how much it means to me. I cannot recommend it enough. This is a story I know I’ll revisit often and carry with me for the rest of my life. It’s permanently a part of me now…literally and figuratively.

It's not often a book leaves me utterly speechless, but Unreachable has done precisely that! I honestly do not know what to say, other than the book was devestatingly good.
This book destroyed me, but like in a good way.
Unreachable is a huge read - 1300 pages is a lot, and it took me a couple weeks to finish it, but I did it and I'm so glad I did.
I can't tell you the number of times I bawled while reading this. This is a romantic tragedy revolving around a nineteen year old woman and her college professor and the themes in this book are incredibly heavy - abuse, addiction, neglect, grief, and suicidal idealation just to name a few.
Unreachable is one of those books you can read once and it will live rent free in your mind forever!
Thank you to the author for the advanced copy of Unreachable. I will definitely be buying a copy to add to my 'Favorite Books' shelf.

Thank you so much to the author for this review copy.
Unfotunately this wasn’t for me. The writing is beautiful and evocative but I was not able to connect with the characters as much as I would have wanted and to keep my interest.
If you like forbiden love, flawed characters, best friend’s father you will probably like this one.

This book is freaking amazing and it absolutely wrecked my soul. I cried so much during the last 20 chapters that IDK how I survived. The writing style and the in depth of the story takes you on a journey of self worth, acceptance and learning to lean on others. Plus the spice was amazing as I was not expecting it for that route. But I felt such a connection to both of the main characters that uhhggg they tore at my soul. If your ready for a deep dive of emotions and connections and possible the hardest heartbreak of your life then unreachable is for you.

"She was worth my world collapsing because without her, this world would no longer be turning after all."

Unreachable by Maezos is a beautiful, heartbreaking story about recognition: two people who have spent their entire lives feeling unseen and suddenly find someone who speaks the same language.

Quill sees the part of Davian that he buried years ago: the author, the dreamer, the man whose creativity was crushed by Joeseph Richter and by his own fear. She pushes him back toward writing and reminds him of who he used to be. In turn, Davian sees beyond Quill's chaos, self-destructive behavior, and anger. He sees the frightened young woman hiding beneath the bravado, someone who survived abuse and neglect. Someone who has spent her life believing she is difficult to love.

Unreachable also portrays a corrupt university leadership filled with ARROGANT men who belittle woman under the guise of superiority and tradition. Fathers who inflict emotional and psychological trauma in such ways that resonated with my soul. It angered me and made me sad countless times while reading.

I loved the bond between Quill and Davian. They felt so real that I genuinely felt at some point I stopped reading about them and started to worry about them. Quill absolutely shattered me. But also healed me in a way. The way she constantly felt like she didn't belong, the way she kept fighting even when everyone around her was telling her she shouldn't be there...... I felt every bit of it.

And Davian.... God, Davian. That man spent this entire series breaking my heart in ways I never could've prepared for. His guilt, his love, his loyalty, his mistakes, the impossible position he was trapped in..... I understood him even when I wanted to scream until my lungs collapsed at him.

What got me the most was how deeply these two understood each other. Not because they were perfect for each other (granted, YES), but because they recognized the wounds in each other. They saw the parts no one else saw. Their chemistry is some of the best I think I've read to date. It's knuckle biting, sweat inducing, the tension and slow burn in this book had me weak in the knees if not ON my knees! Quil and Davian are tethered together by the strongest of threads and are the epitome of soul mates. They share a love that is unwavering, it's pure and in its truest form. It's that once in a lifetime love that stays with you forever.

To cut to the point because I'm rambling.... This book is a literal MASTERPIECE and a complete work of art. It's smacked me in the face SO HARD. It tore me into absolute shreds and put me back together JUST to shatter me all over. But I wouldn't change a single thing. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I think I finished this with about 709 highlights, a lot of tears, and a heart that still feels broken. Unreachable took over my life, but I know Quil and Davian will stay with me forever.

Thank you so much Aly for allowing me to read your book, I cannot wait to see everything else you accomplish and write. You have an amazing gift, and a beautiful mind.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️♾️

I’m going to say it right now… this is an infinity-star read, and I will accept absolutely no criticism. This is one of the most epic, poetic, heart-wrenching, soul-crushing books I have ever read, and these two characters will never leave my soul.

This story follows Quill, our FMC, and my God… you are going to love this woman. She is fiery, resilient, and so unbelievably strong despite everything life has thrown at her. But her childhood… her childhood is going to destroy you. There were moments I had to put this book down because my heart physically couldn’t take the pain. Watching the people who should have loved and protected her fail her over and over again is absolutely devastating—and saying that is still an understatement. She deserved so much more than the life she was given.

And then there’s Davian. Goddamn. This man is going to make you weak. He has officially earned a place in my Top 5 book boyfriends of all time. The way this man loves… the way he bleeds every piece of his soul for Quill… that kind of love is unforgettable. When these two finally meet, it’s like watching two souls recognize each other. It’s beautiful and heartbreaking! ❤️‍🩹

There is nothing easy about this story. Every chapter, every passage, every sentence carries meaning. The writing is layered, poetic, and so beautifully intentional that I found myself slowing down just to absorb every word.

One of my favorite parts of this book is the way it was formatted. Every section is paired with a song from a curated playlist, and reading while listening completely transforms the experience. The music doesn’t just accompany the story—it amplifies every emotion. It pulls you deeper into the heartbreak, the hope, the longing… everything.

Please, check your trigger warnings before going in.
This book explores incredibly heavy subjects including abuse, emotional abuse, trauma, depression, and more. There were moments I had to put the book down simply because of how emotionally overwhelming it was, and I don’t say that lightly.

This book may not be for everyone. It’s complex. It’s uncomfortable. It’s morally messy. It’s emotionally demanding.

But if you’re willing to surrender yourself to it, this story will consume you.I truly believe you should go into this one as blindly as possible.

“Your ink. My veins. 23:23.”

That quote… and that time… will live in my head forever.

Quill and Davian gave me a love story that I know I’ll carry with me for a very long time.

This isn’t just another romance.

It’s unforgettable.

It’s devastating.

It’s haunting.

It’s beautiful.

And it’s a story that will sit with me for years!!!🥹

Thank you, Maezos, for trusting me with an ARC of this incredible novel. It was an absolute honor to experience this story before release. This is a book I’ll be recommending over and over again, and I’m so grateful I got to be part of its journey.

NOW! GO READ IT!!!

First of all, thank you to the author for providing me with an ARC copy of this beautiful yet heartbreaking story. It was a privilege to experience Quill and Davian's journey before publication. Their story was emotional, raw, and unforgettable, and it left a lasting impression on me. While it completely shattered my heart at times, I'm grateful to have been given the opportunity to read such a powerful and deeply moving book.

It's one of those books that stays with you long after you've finished it. It's a deeply emotional and heartbreaking story that explores love, trauma, loneliness, and the complicated ways people try to heal. At its heart, this is the story of Quill and Davian—two damaged individuals who find comfort and understanding in each other when the world seems determined to break them apart.

What makes this book so powerful is how real the characters feel. They aren't perfect, and they don't always make the right choices, but that's exactly why their story is so compelling. Quill constant struggle to find where she belongs and Davian's overwhelming guilt and inner conflict made them feel like real people rather than fictional characters. There were moments when I wanted to hug them, moments when I was frustrated with them, and moments when they completely broke my heart.

The setting adds another layer of depth to the story. The elite Virginia law school, the secretive society, the corruption, and the power struggles create a dark and immersive atmosphere. The 1990s backdrop and the carefully chosen music references make the story even more memorable, adding an emotional weight that lingers throughout the novel.

One thing I admired most was the author's willingness to tackle difficult topics. The book doesn't shy away from pain, mental health struggles, or uncomfortable emotions. Because of that, the story feels raw, honest, and deeply personal. You can tell that this novel means something important to the author, and that sincerity shines through on every page.

That being said, the book won't work for everyone. At over a thousand pages, it can feel overwhelming at times, and some of the additional plot lines may distract readers who are mainly invested in Quill and Davian's relationship. There were moments when the story felt a little chaotic, and a tighter focus on the central romance might have made the emotional impact even stronger.

Despite its flaws, it delivers an unforgettable reading experience. It is emotional, messy, beautiful, and devastating in equal measure. More than anything, it is a story about broken people trying to find connection and meaning in a difficult world. It may not be an easy read, but for readers willing to embrace its heartbreak and intensity, it offers a powerful and memorable journey that is hard to forget.

How do you even review a book like this?

Unreachable is truly unlike anything I've ever read. At its core, this is a romantic tragedy in the truest sense of the phrase. There were so many moments where I found myself desperately rooting for these characters while simultaneously wanting to scream at them to stop. That push and pull is exactly what makes this story so devastating. Every choice feels inevitable and yet completely heartbreaking.

One of my favorite aspects of this book was how unapologetically flawed the characters are—inside and out. They aren't polished or easy to love, and that's precisely what makes them feel so real. Their imperfections make the emotional impact hit that much harder.

The setting was phenomenal. The elite Virginia law school, the old-school society, the corruption, the atmosphere—it all felt rich and immersive. Add in the 1990s setting, which is one of my favorite eras to read in romance, and I was completely sold.

This book is long. Very long. While I was entertained throughout, there was a point where the pacing felt slower for me. That said, the novel is intentionally written in three parts, which the author herself describes as essentially three books. Looking at it through that lens, the length feels much more understandable, and I almost think readers would benefit from approaching it in sections.

And please, take the trigger warnings seriously. If suicide or suicidal ideation are triggering topics for you, this is not the book for you. This is a heavy, unconventional story that will absolutely not work for every reader.

But for me, I will always appreciate a book that makes me feel as deeply as this one did.

And honestly, the dedication alone tells you exactly what kind of story you're about to enter:

"To those who use razor blades as if they were cigarettes."

The music woven throughout the novel deserves its own mention. Having specific songs attached to major scenes added an entirely different emotional layer to the reading experience. The soundtrack elevated moments that were already powerful and made them linger long after I finished the page.

What stayed with me most, though, was the author's note. Learning that this story was—and continues to be—a therapeutic and deeply personal work for the author reframed much of the experience. This was never written solely as an entertainment product. You can feel that in every page. It feels raw, messy, painful, and intensely human.

This book won't be for everyone. In fact, I suspect many readers will struggle with its unconventional nature. But if you're willing to embrace the discomfort, the heartbreak, and the tragedy, you'll find a story that leaves a lasting mark.

Closing this book, staring at the wall, I am lost for words.

This book cannot be put lightly. It is full of heartbreak, it is devastating, there is hope, and there is love. It pulled out my heart, and replaced it, over and over again. I cried, oh boy, did I cry!

I have never felt in my heart a book was worth more than a 5-star review. This book is worth every star under the sun - it blew me away! The quotes are phenomenal, heartbreaking and raw. The characters are diverse, and each have a big part in the overall story. The plot and the writing is jaw dropping!

This book is a piece of art, and we are just the viewers.

• mental health
• forbidden romance
• traumatic events
• age gap

I am limiting this list as this book isn't about the tropes, and I do not want to spoil anything in any way. Please read the content warnings! Before starting this book, please be in a good headspace.

D E D I C A T I O N 🦋

To those who use razorblades as if they were cigarettes.

To those who lost a parent to addiction. You were never the problem.

To those failed by the school system.
Those who think they were not smart enough.
Not good enough.
Not made for this world.
This system was never made for artists.
It was made to bleed them out.
Let us show them how beautifully artists can bleed.

This book is for my authors.
Those who doubt their writing.
Those who gave up on it entirely.
And those who never dared to pick up the pen because they don't believe they will ever become published. May you never abandon the weapon that made you survive this hell on earth.

M U S I C 🎼

The playlist for this book is perfectly aligned with the book. If you read with music, this book and playlist shine! And yes, it is almost 25 hours long. To be able to showcase all the amazing song choices and quotes is impossible.

T H A N K Y O U ✨️

Maezos, I cannot thank you enough for allowing me to read and review this absolute breathtaking, and earth shattering book.

"Your ink. My veins."
Unreachable will live within my veins forever!

This book is an absolute masterpiece. Unreachable is a dark psychological drama that does not have a HEA. You absolutely need to read the trigger warnings and you definitely need to read the authors other series, The Blairville Legacies.

*I received this book as an ARC from the author*

This was a tricky one for me to review and rate because it’s not something I might have ordinarily chosen for myself being a romance (and specifically dark romance) reader, so my lens for this one comes from a bit of a different mindset.

This was a deeply emotional story that touches on different types of personal suffering and centers (mostly) around a romance, but with that said, it’s also thematically different from a standard romance. I liked the setup and the world, it felt very clearly defined and the plot itself was interesting, I was invested in what would happen next and it surprised me several times! There are lots of secrets to uncover in this book!

This is technically 3 books in 1 so it’s hefty. While I enjoyed the story overall I definitely felt part 3 was tonally different from 1 & 2 and the pace really picked up here; it’s what registered the most with me for what I enjoy.

The core relationship had me totally invested and dealt with a lot of my favorite elements, mainly an age gap love story and a forbidden romance, which are 2 things I adore. I was rooting for Quill and Davian and their story was beautiful and tragic on its own. You genuinely feel all the angst they’re experiencing and want them together.

The tension was FANTASTIC if a bit *too* drawn out, this is 500% a slow burn in the most agonizing way, but I was really happy with the payoff and the spice that we got when it happened and how it was written. With that said though, I wanted more spice and time together with the MCs once they were fully able to indulge. What we got was steamy but the work to get to it was a lot and without any spoilers, definitely leaves you wishing it lasted longer but this isn’t that type of book. This is where it felt different from a standard romance for me, this book definitely leans more emotion-first than relationship/spice first which isn’t what I normally read. If you’re an emotion-first reader though, buckle up!

Overall this was a beautiful story that will leave you with a lot of feelings and I’m still not really sure how to categorize it!

For one potential tiny spoiler that I do think is important- this does not have a HEA so if you go in knowing that, it might help set the tone and expectations as well.

A visceral, dense, and utterly poetic masterpiece about the darkest corners of obsession and art.

​There are books you read, and then there are books that consume you. Unreachable unequivocally belongs to the second category. Maezos didn't just deliver another Dark Academia romance; she built a true elegy to the 1990s, carved right into the hypocrisy and suffocating elitism of Maplecrest.

​The atmosphere of this book is tangible. The sheer weight of law school, the raw discrimination Quillon faces as the first woman in such a hostile, patriarchal environment, and the solitude of art as her only refuge are written with breathtaking poetic mastery. Quill is a protagonist of quiet, arresting strength; she isn't written as a cliché, but with all the layers and scars of someone carrying deep trauma, finding her true voice solely through ink and words.

​"Ink isn't just what we use to record history; it’s the blood that spills from the truths we try to hide."

And then we have Davian Rydell. The dynamic between him and Quill is the pinnacle of psychological tension, forbidden desire, and an impeccably crafted age-gap. His obsession isn't superficial—it stems from a dark, complex, and protective place where a fascination with Quillon’s mind precedes the physical. The overarching metaphor of ink connecting them—two authors living under the burden of appearances and expectations—elevates this story far beyond romance, turning it into a fascinating study of the human soul.

​"She wasn't an intruder in those halls of stone and hypocrisy; she was the only real thing in an ocean of illusions."

The slow, visceral pace of the narrative does complete justice to the scale of the work. Chapter by chapter, it builds the inevitability of their ruin brick by brick, and when the storm finally hits, the emotional impact is devastating. The pain, the angst, and the characters' process of healing and rebuilding were written with raw, unforgettable sensitivity.

​"The distance between us isn't measured in steps or rules, Quillon. It's measured in everything we leave unsaid for fear of destroying each other."

Unreachable is a dense, intense read that demands much from the reader, but rewards you with one of the most cohesive, atmospheric, and haunting stories in the genre. A true milestone in modern Dark Academia. 🖤✨

🦋This book is a literal MASTERPIECE. No notes. 6 stars. God tier read. End Of. ♾️🦋

Ive tried to write this review so many times now, and honestly, I don't even know where to start.

This book is a complete work of art, and it smacked me in the face SO HARD. Like WDYM this is one of the greatest books I've read?! Or will ever read. Aly, has such a way with words, so poetic, so raw. This book really is EVERYTHING. Its a soul book, MY SOUL BOOK, god tier, ROMAN EMPIRE and worth so many fucking stars. ALL THE STARS. Its heartbreak, unfiltered emotional damage as its finest. I resonated with this book so much and I felt SO SEEN just from the dedications alone. And I am forever grateful that I found my way to Aly & her writing. Unreachable is engrained into my soul, its in my veins, and ill happily bleed out.

This book tore me into absolute shreds, and I have no doubt it'll tear you too. I cant give much away in terms of storyline, because blind is best, but is a hell of a ride. I've said this once already, but I stand by it. If you love emotional wreckage, tension that can start fires and chemistry that even a science lab couldn’t create, pleaseeeee… add this to your TBR. Is it messy? SURE. Will it wreck you in a way you might not recover from? ABSOLUTELY. But this is a special read, its a long one for sure, but don't let that deter you! This is essentially three books in one, Part 1,2 &3. Its also very emotionally heavy, it deals with difficult subject matters, so please take that into consideration. So bear that in mind, also, this story is so much more than a love story, its a dark psychological drama. With a generous sprinkle of love.

The slow burn was the best I’ve ever read. The age gap, DONE TO PERFECTION. 🔥🔥🔥

Quill & Davian are EVERYTHING. Their chemistry is some of the best I've ever read. Its knuckle biting, the tension and slow burn in this book had me on my knees! They are tethered together by the strongest threads, and are the epitome of soul mates. They share a love that is unwavering, its pure and in its truest form. Its that once in a lifetime kind of love that stays with you.

The twists in it were SO GOOD too. Not predictable at all. The drama was EVENTFUL, so much was going on, the theories were theory-ing 🤣 The friendships found were incredible… 😭😭

Davian is absolutely everything. Ugh THAT MAN....Daddy status *UNLOCKED*... I am completely weak for him and his hand veins. The restraint that man showed was heroic, like WDYM. His yearning was TOP TIER. Unmatched. And a top MMC for me for sure. The way he showed up for Quill time and time again was just utter perfection. Aly sure knows how to write a MMC.

My sad little heart hurt for Quill sm, she deserved the whole world and Davian was the key. She was so complex, so grown and her soul clicked with mine. Her story really hit home with me on a personal level and i connected with her sm, more than I've probably connected with a character, and my poor heart was just so devasted for what she endured.
But the two of them together?! They belonged, together they were whole... and they bought out the absolute best in eachother. When they had eachother, they had everything.

Hand on heart, this book is up there with my absolute favourites ever. I will cherish their story, and i'll always adore Aly. Who's forever stuck with me. I probably repeated myself in this review, but just know, Unreachable blew me away in a way no other book ever has. So for that Aly, THANK YOU. I’m so proud of what you’ve achieved with this book!

ALL THE STARS!!!! And favourite read of the year, HANDS DOWN.

Some books tell a story. This one feels like it quietly takes your heart, fills it with hope, and then leaves you sitting in silence long after you've turned the last page. There are books that make you smile. There are books that make you cry. And then there are books that leave a permanent mark on your soul. This was one of those books for me.

If I have to describe it in a sentence I'd say it's BEAUTIFULLY TRAGGIC.

At its core, this is a story about two people who find each other when the world has given them every reason to stop believing in being understood. They are connected not by grand gestures or perfect circumstances, but by something much rarer, recognition. The kind that happens when another person sees the parts of you you've spent your entire life trying to explain.

Their connection wasn't loud or dramatic. It was built from shared loneliness, unspoken pain, and the comfort of finally meeting someone who speaks the same language as your heart. Not everyone will understand that kind of bond. Some people will see a romance. Others will see two people helping each other survive.

Both characters carry wounds that don't disappear just because they found each other. They come from lives shaped by struggle, loneliness, expectations, and pain. Yet somehow, in the middle of all that, they become a safe place for one another. When one is falling apart, the other becomes strength. When one loses hope, the other reminds them how to keep going. The characters aren't perfect. They carry scars, fears, and burdens that shape every choice they make. They struggle with family, with expectations, with themselves. Yet through all of it, they keep finding their way back to each other. Sometimes as a source of strength. Sometimes as a reminder that they are not alone.

This is also a book that understands an uncomfortable truth. Love alone doesn't magically solve everything, but it helps us to keep pushing, keep surviving another day. Sometimes life is bigger than love. Sometimes circumstances are cruel, when finally they feel hope, believing that there's a tomorrow, but all of a sudden everything is ripped right under your feet.

I think not everyone will understand this story, and that's okay. If you've never felt deeply connected to someone, some parts may seem exaggerated. But if you've ever met a person who made you feel less alone in the world, a person who understood things you couldn't explain to anyone else, this book will hit differently.

It's about survival. About being seen. About finding light in another person when your own has almost gone out. And it's not your regular typical HEA.

Some books entertain you. Some books break you. This one somehow manages to do both.

And most of all, it's about the kind of connection that stays with you long after the story ends.

Not everyone will get it. But the people who do will never forget it.

The line that broke me

Where are you, my Blue?
– Leaking Batteries Diary

and I broke again when I came to know how the book got its title🙃

Quill had been all of that.
But above all, she had been one thing.
Unreachable.

⚠️If you ever ask the question why and wonder if , is that it? Is this how they end? Please read this authors another book series " The Blairville Legacies " and upcoming series "Botaninks". Everything is connected. The feather 🪶 will find its way back to it's inkwell.

Again.

If I could hug both Davian and Quill in real life, I would in a heartbeat. What they went through is something I wouldn’t wish upon anyone, and watching them carry those wounds broke my heart over and over again.

And the ENDING?! WHYYYY?! Not in a million years would I have guessed that was coming. I am absolutely bawling my eyes out.

I loved seeing the introduction of new characters from the other books, and don’t even get me started on the plot twists. Every time I thought I knew where the story was heading, the ground shifted beneath my feet. I’m trying so hard not to spoil anything because everyone deserves to experience those moments for themselves.

I know it’s a long book, but I genuinely hope more people give it a chance. Somewhere between the heartbreak, the hope, and the chaos, I found something that deeply resonated with me. I hope everyone who reads it finds that one line, one moment, or one character that feels like a mirror held up to their own soul.

The broken system portrayed in this book was unimaginable. It was a reminder that society is not a single face but a sky filled with different stars - some that guide, some that burn, and some that have been hidden by darkness for far too long.

Maezos,

You have truly outdone yourself with this one. Through your words, you opened a window into worlds many people never stop to see. You showed that not every story follows the same road and not every person carries the same map. Your writing is like a lantern in a foggy forest, illuminating corners people often overlook and helping readers see the world through a different lens.

I found you by chance through TBL, but after that, I knew I had found an author whose storytelling would stay with me. Your world-building, your characters, and the emotions you weave into every page are unforgettable.

Thank you for writing. Thank you for creating stories that make us feel, question, grieve, hope, and grow.

Please keep doing what you do.

Love you, and congratulations on creating something so special. ❤️

First, I want to thank Maezos for the gifted eARC copy of Unreachable to read and provide my honest, spoiler free review.

My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My Thoughts:
Attention all readers. You need to get comfy with a blanket and some snacks before you dive on in to this book. It’s a beautifully well done combination of three books that will take you on a journey that will leave you feeling different than when you first started this book.

These characters were unlike any other characters I’ve read. The perfection in imperfection is what really worked well here. Having two flawed human beings circling around each other before making choices that might have you shaking your head, has been the epitome of this book. I truly enjoyed these characters and loved that they weren’t perfect. I’ve found myself on a rollercoaster with how I felt about these two and let’s just say I’m not mad about it because at the end of it all, these characters were real and made everything feel so relatable.

This author really knows how to reach out to her audience in a way that can truly make an impact. Along with the main characters this book had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen. Also, I really love that this author took the time to add in songs to chapters and certain scenes in the book. I listened to the songs while I read and it brought a whole new level of submersion while reading.

This book truly is a romantic tragedy and it kept me in its clutches the entire time. There was so many moments of uncertainty and for an author to make me feel like I was right there beside these characters trying to make sense of a little thing we call life just made for an even more compelling story. Mental health is also really important in this story and the way the author wrote about it all felt very well done and a perfect way to show readers that they aren’t alone out there. I don’t want to spoil any but if the story but just know that you should guard your heart before continuing with this story that just might leave a huge impact on you.
