Okay okay so ig it is indeed my fault knowing I held off reading this book because it did not seem like I was gonna like it. However, I saw one of the authors vid on TikTok promoting it and I was like ok ok maybe this isn't half bad. I was wrong. This poor godamn girl oml. It was just a whole bunch of sexual assault. This girl had just turned 17 like that day and men from like 28-34 were like doing sexual shit to her. Wtf....One of them point blanks says, "but if my wife cries, I'll have to beat it out of her." I get its a dark romance but this book was just so fucking nasty. Like maybe it gets better as the series goes on but this was.......more

This was just like nothing to write home about like everything about it was meh. Like it wasn’t a bad book but as I woild say wit**spoiler alert** 3.5
This was just like nothing to write home about like everything about it was meh. Like it wasn’t a bad book but as I woild say with the first one the action and fighting saves it cuz otherwise. And definitely for this book the last like 100 ish pages saves the book.
So it starts off with her like coming back to life and I didn’t really get what was going on and didn’t really care to find out so
“Welcome to the freak show.”
Umm the first 100 pages r very dull like I’m sorry idc, like it was so dull. She kept having these like dreams that made no sense and I didn’t rlly get it nor care and I was confused. To elaborate ig it’s just like basically more “world building” or like creating the character but like we already know the character and like idk it was just so dull I was about to dnf bruh, After this the book kinda continues on I won’t explain the plot but like idk here’s quotes and shït
“She glances over at me, her eyes shining in the dark. “You’re a hero, Penryn, whether you like it or not.”
The pressure put on Penryn is so oml. Like she has to take care of her family she has do everything she’s the fighter, the liberator, the “hero”. Like idk. Umm Penryn has her moments tho and ahh
“He’ll be out for a few seconds, just long enough for me to take care of Alpha boy. And when these two come back to their senses, lying helpless on the floor with me towering above them, they’ll get the message loud and clear: I am dominant here. You live or die at my mercy and I say when you fight and when you don’t.”
I WANT TO FUCK HER Umm this was so ahh
“Raffe grabs me around the waist and lifts me into his arms like in an old-time movie. His arms cradle my back and knees. I reflexively wrap my arms around his neck. For a moment, I’m confused, and the silliest thoughts flood through my head. “Don’t let me go,” he says. He runs with me toward the bluff. Two steps into it, his wings burst out from their wing coverings. Madeline’s sparkly white feathers explode behind us as giant bat wings spread out. Freedom in the shape of demon’s wings. I want to laugh and cry at the same time. I’m in Raffe’s arms, flying.”
I’m sorry but ah
“There’s no way around it, is there?” I ask. “We’re mortal enemies and I should be trying to kill you and everyone like you.” He leans over, touches the tip of his forehead to mine, and closes his eyes. “Yes.” His gentle breath caresses my lips as he says the word. I close my eyes too, and try to focus on the warmth of his forehead resting on mine.” THIS QUOTE THIS QUOTE THIS QUOTE
“He glares at me. “I’ve had to watch you die once, isn’t that enough?”
No words
Side notes: - The very very thinly veiled misogyny throughout the whole book is...more
**spoiler alert** Ok the overall premise was pretty good and largely original yk angels come to earth and they’re evil very much dystopian idk y’all k**spoiler alert** Ok the overall premise was pretty good and largely original yk angels come to earth and they’re evil very much dystopian idk y’all know the vibes. Okay so we get our main girl Penryn, penryn takes care of her kid disabled sister and like her mentally ill mom. So she like the protector, girl can fight and shït I like her. Ok so yk her sis gets like kidnapped ish and whatevs she and angel dude go on like a journey.
Okay btw I liked them, I liked their banter I thought it was cute
“Try doing that again, and I’ll snap you in half before you know it.” “Big words from a guy who’s trussed up like a turkey. What are you going to do, wobble over here like an upside-down turtle to snap me in half?” “The logistics of breaking you are easy. The only question is when.” “Right. If you could do it, you would have done it already.” “Maybe you entertain me.” He says with supreme confidence as if he’s in control of the situation. “Like a monkey with an attitude and a pair of scissors.” He relaxes and rests his chin on the couch.”
“You’re like a little girl demanding answers to questions during a covert operation. Why is the sky blue, daddy? Can I ask that man with the machine gun where the bathroom is? If you don’t stay quiet, I’m going to have to dump you. You need to do what I tell you, when I tell you, no questions or hesitation about it. If you don’t like it, find someone else to pester into helping you.” “Okay, okay. I got it. Geez, some people are so grouchy.”
“He heads for the door. “Are you really an archangel?” I whisper. He gives me a cocky grin. “Impressed?” “No,” I lie. “But I have some complaints I’d like to file about your personnel.” “Talk to middle management.”
Like they were funny and cute I liked it however I’m not like going remember it for the rest of my life like they didn’t stand out from like any other characters or book. I did like how they like slowly got more romantic ish ig
“What if they don’t let us go through?” I ask, trying not to move my lips. “They will,” he answers from the dark recesses of the backseat footwell. “How do you know?” “Because you have the look they’re looking for.” “What look is that?” “Beautiful.” His voice is like a caress from the shadow”
Like this shit was cute asf I loved it.
Ok but besides this the book was bland asf okay like I’m sorry but there’s literally nothing intresting abt it. The plot was dull and predictable, the romance was dull and predictable and the character were...u guessed it dull and predictable. I didn’t care abt any of them and just yeah I was just like ‘at least this book is short’
Random shit I have opinions 1. “Dangerous times, Dee-Dum. Every girl should have a blade on her.” I have to strap it upside-down and at an angle so that it fits my back without the hilt”
Idc she was hot asf for this
2. “I’m not much of a joiner.” This just reminds me of Harley Quinn idk I’ve watched suicide squad so many times so like y’all know
3. World building, for a story like this world building is important and so when it is not done well we’re just like...more

Rr: Lily is annoying as hell, never thinks of the consequences of her actions and literally just expects things to work out for her for some reason ig?? Her expectations and like goals r the most out of the world thing like do you think you live on Mars because in what planet would your father allow you to marry for LOVR, bitch have you met him. She’s just ridiculous all the time. Romero is dumb also like my mans why u going against your capo like what is the reason blah blah love you don’t know her like at all but fine. Lily just for some reason believes that Moses is gonna part the sea for her like why would Luca go to war why are you mad at aria for being like “y’all r dumbasses”.
