I had to DNF this book 😭😭 I am actually so sad about this. I just couldn't stand the MMC after a while. Will I come back to finish it? Idk. I dont feel compelled to do so atm but who knows 🤷🏼‍♀️ i just found myself getting annoyed more as the book went on

Absolutely loving this. So unique - different from a lot of the books I typically read and I am eating this uuuuppppp 😍🔪

"If I'd known demons looked like that, I wouldn't have had such an irrational fear of letting my foot hang over the edge of the bed. Hell, I might've done it on purpose." 😈 🤣

Why do I love this so much? 😳

Off to a strong start - the entire first chapter is dedicated to a content warning ⚠️ good thing I don't have any triggers 😏

"It matters, the jaw. People don't like when their dead gape. They'll forgive a lot of things, but not an open mouth. Especially not when something climbs out during the Last Watch."

😳😳 ooooh, I pray this is as good as I am hoping for!!

What the fuuuuu? I'm gutted. Absolutely devastated. Jack. Not Jack 😭😭😭

I am so FUCKING obsessed with Colton 😭 this man is delicious. #newbookboyfriend 😍 I can already tell I am going to give this book 5 stars & I will be RUNNING to read the second book 🥰

Obsessed. Exactly what I needed right now
I am so invested at this point already

That just gave me the chills wtf

"Dove was the one everyone saw, and Andrew was the one they forgot."

Need a quick little pallet cleanser before diving back into the dark romance! I have heard good things about this one!

My heart literally fluttered and I squealed when Vaughn admitted to Yulian that the tattoo on his thigh were the coordinates to the cave they both ended up in at 15 years old after Yuli was shot 😭😭🫶🫶

I want to punch Felix's dad in the nose

Absolutely love how Vaughn's parents are helping him save Yulian from his ass of a father 😭

"I love you so much, it's sick." I throw my arms around him, squeezing for a solid second, and then release. "What a great first hug." "We really didn't hug, I just stood here." "I felt the embrace of your body." "Never say that again." "It sounded sexual. I hear it now." "I'm leaving."

Felix is such a little spaz and I love it sm 🤣
He is so funny with his sponsor, Dean 🫶

I am absolutely loving this relationship dynamic. Felix is everything Jake needs & vice versa. Also, am I the only one who googled "do elephants looks at humans the way humans look at puppies" when Felix texted that lil random fun fact to Jake ???? 🤣🤣 apparently elephants think humans are cute 😍

"And I want to get high, again. Right now, even though my life is over because of it. That's how I really know I'm fucked." - Jake.

As a recovering addict with 11 years of sobriety, I can sadly relate to this more than I care to admit. This story is going to devestate my heart, isn't it? 😞

The way Vaughn jumped over the cliff after Yulian 😭❤️😭❤️

I am so obsessed. I'm hooked. I freaking love Yulian - hilarious, so impulsive, a bit traumatized & I just want to protect his heart 😭❤️

**currently a soft dnf 😫

OKAY, OKAY, do not come for me!!! This is a "right book, wrong time" type of situation... I guess it's just not what my brain is craving atm but I WILL pick this book back up!! I PROMISE 🫶

Heard nothing but amazing things about this book.... about time I read it myself! Here we go 🙃

Obsessed with this audio book 💙

I haven't been able to read in a few days because 2 of my children ended up sick 😭🤢 but baby, I am BAAAAACK!! 📚🦋

"It's bad enough I can still feel her touch from last night. I can't stop thinking about it; only this time, I imagine her fingers reaching inside my chest, closing around my sick heart." - Silas 💙

Sooooo I've never read a book that has made me wish I didn't have 3 young children to care for, a job and other responsibilities because if I didn't, I'd have binged this book in one sitting. ITS ADDICTED AND THERE IS LITERAL CR*CK IN THESE PAGES

Okay, I know I'm supposed to be reading other books (I'll sometimes read multiple, epsecially when in a slump) but this book?! I am HOOKED. I currently want to punch Silas in the face buuuuut.. I also kind of love him? Even though he went about it all wrong; he totally did Ivy a favor by exposing Grady's true feelings. Poor girl had it BAD for that boy

OMG, okay! So by this point, it is obvious that Seraphine & Dane share a past - not entirely sure what that consists of just yet but I am DYING to know! Its also painfully obvious that they both very much care for eachother... whether they want to admit that to themselves or not. Dane is clearly protecting Sera from something.... but the yearning?! Omg the yearning between these two is so painful! I love them

Ugh, Shadow Daddy Dane 🤤 🔥

"Whoever has it better not show him my list of reasons why I can't be attracted to him. The most important one: Dane is cruel. I also don't think I can stomach him approaching me with it clenched in his hand, questioning why I drew him with a big forehead, small dick, and warts all over his face." 🤣🤣 THESE TWO ARE HILARIOUS.
👏 the banter 👏 10/10

**don't read this if you don't want any spoilers**

My heart just sank for Tierney 😭
"I can't get pregnant, Achilles. I have no uterus." I DID NOT EXPECT THAT. This poor girl went through the worst of the worst while in that damn Siberian camp 😢 that's so sad

I know this is only a page after my last post but omg this book has me cackling!!!
**still Achilles POV**
"Of course she was good at sucking cock. Of fucking course. I was starting to see the error of my ways. Breaking up with her for trying to kill me was a disproportionate overreaction on my part. I mean, was it really warranted? She only did it once. Everybody deserves a second chance." Lmao
