It feels like this book has been going on FOREVER. Imagine my surprise when I checked and saw that I’m only 50% through it… I want to DNF this badly. 😩 The only reason I’m even considering finishing it is because I can’t return it, but honestly… I don’t know if I can do this anymore😭😂 Even the narrators can’t save me at this point.

"How am I meant to resist you?”
“Don’t think you’re meant to, doc.
You ready for me to destroy your life yet?”
“Yeah.”

At this point, I don’t think I’m breathing anymore 🫨😮‍💨🥵 And to think I was bored at the beginning?!😭

“You taste.. like nothing I’ve ever tasted. Like rapture.
Everything about you, human, is so fucking good.
It’s perfect. You taste like life, baby.
You are life.”
He looked just like a sex demon.
A lethal creature of darkness.
So. Fucking. Hungry.

😮‍💨🥵 don’t mind me, just over here reading about hungry demons and having the absolute best time

I’m invested in this story, but the audiobook really isn’t doing it any favors. (Why can’t they just make more duet narrations in MM??) Switching to my Kindle 🥸

Fine, I’ll read it 😌 Giving this author a second chance

At first I wasn’t sure because of the insta-lust from the very beginning, but nooow we’re getting somewhere 👀 Too bad I need to go to sleep just as it’s getting interesting. I never learn not to start new books late in the evening🫠

I didn't even realize how much I missed these wonderfully funny, odd and endearing characters 🥹💚

“I’m not a monster,” Chauncey said.
”Nope,” Phee said. “You’re Chauncey. The best Chauncey I’ve ever known.”
”And I’m handsome as crap.”
”Hell yes.”
”And I can eat all the pine cones I want because they’re not human.”

”Eli, I am happy for you. I’m not judging, I’m celebrating. Love is love, but noise is also noise.”
“Ryan,” Luca warns.
”What? Am I wrong? They’ve been eye-fucking over baby bottles for weeks. I think I deserve emotional closure.”
”You deserve a muzzle,” Liam mutters.

can’t wait for Ryan’s book 😂 love this group

’Chauncey hefted it over his shoulder, his bellhop cap sitting crooked on his head. After, he made sure to tip Chauncey handsomely. It was what one did after having received first-rate service, after all. The saltwater on the floor was warm.’

’And next to it, piled lovingly, were buttons. So many buttons.’

yep, my eyes are leaking again🥹🥹

Chauncey and his dream of becoming a bellhop 😭🥹 i love this book so much already

“Because for the longest time, before he came here, he was called a monster, even by people who should have known better. He was told the stories of monsters hiding under beds whose calling in life was to frighten others. He thought that was who he was supposed to be.” 🥺

shadow wielding?? consider me officially invested, I’m sat 🧎🏼‍♀️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

Okay I absolutely love Cason 😂😂 already laughed out loud couple times

It’s been a really long time since I’ve come across a book I’ve wanted to read in one sitting, and now that I’m finally reading one, I’m only being held back by the inconvenient existence of sleep😩 will be finishing this first thing tomorrow!!

’Have… have I gotten Stockholm syndrome from a demon?’

“Every day that you wake up, you’re a survivor. Every goddamn day. And I’m sorry for that. I am so, so sorry that you have to be a survivor for the rest of your life. I’m sorry there isn’t a finish line. I’m sorry trauma can’t be fixed with a 10-day prescription and some rest. But running away from that for the rest of your life won't change that. It’ll only make things worse.”

’They tell me it’s okay that I can’t talk, that everything is okay, that they love me, that they’re so fucking happy I’m still alive.
I won’t ever tell them I’m not so happy.’

I wanted a book that would make me feel. Well, mission accomplished 😭 be careful what you wish for. My heart is absolutely breaking for Matt 💔
I love these two broken boys

”And that was Theon standing in the doorway with darkness swirling all around him. His wings were out, a dark backdrop behind him, and his emerald eyes blazed with a fury she recognized.

A fury she felt in her own soul because she was feeling her wrath mixed with his.

She had bound herself to death, and he had come for her.”

Back to where it all started: fantasy and FM.. I honestly don’t know how to feel about this 🌝😂 I’ve been putting off reading this book for forever, but I really need to finish this series!! With my reading slump still slumping and all the books I’ve been reading lately starting to blur together, now seems like a good time to finally pick this one up.

I don't know how I've never read this when I've read all the other three, but here we go 📖

”I’ve watched you. For a long time. You and your son. Benji. You know he believes the sun sets and rises with you,right? That you hung the moon and the stars for all the world to see?

I promise you he will know peace again. It will take time, but one day, he’ll look to the sky and the sun will rise above the horizon and warm his face.He will know peace.I promise you.”

apparently we’re crying again

’I went room to room, whispering his name, saying his name, finally bellowing his name, demanding that he come out from wherever he was hiding, that he show himself and end this joke, end this whole fucking thing.
I was tired, I screamed at him. I was so tired of this game and I wanted it to be over.
No reply came.’

😭😭💔
this book. this god damn book

”Do you feel me?”
”Yes. You want me.”
”More than you know.”
”But we’re going to wait until I’m crawling on my knees for it.”
”No, Nicholas. I’ll be the one crawling for you.”

None of my MM audiobooks have really hooked me lately (my reading slump is slumping 😭), and I had a random urge to continue this series—so here we are. At least I get to listen to Corvin.

”This would be peak comedy if I weren’t personally starring in a psychological horror film.” 😂

Noooooo, why have they changed the second narrator😭😭 I absolutely loved Alexander Cendese and Max Meyers together in Stupid Dirty and 68 whiskey. Now I'll have to settle for Zachary Zaba🥲

”Are you going to hurt me?”
”I don’t want to,” Asher began, then cocked his head, tracking the tears down Levi’s face. Be honest. “Not that much.”

hehe we’re back! I’m invested again 👀

FINALLY this is getting somewhere!
I forced myself to get this far, let’s hope it’ll be worth it🤞🏽

Okaay I absolutely love the writing style in this. Already made me emotional 🥹🥹
But I don't want to get my hopes up just yet… I've been here before

Re-reading as an audio 🎧

I'm struggling with this 😭 I love Asher and Levi, but this scene doesn't interest me at all 🥲 Well, I did say in my review of book 1 that if book 2 was the same—just them getting through the game again—I wouldn't read it, but here we are, forcing myself to read and love this 😂

I feel mentally and physically unwell when reading this.. but also I won’t rest until I’ve finished. This NEEDS to end well 😶😶
