I liked it but I didn't love it like others did. I read a LOT of romantasy so I wasn't blown away like I expected to be, I felt like the ending and the last page were kind of predictable. I wish there was more of an emotional development between Violet and Xaden. I LOVED the dragon aspect of the plot and Xaden is a great MMC. Violet is a good FMC who isn't annoying or whiney which i liked. Overall definitely worth the read but i dont know if i woud say it's worth the hype. I will read the next book before the third comes out though.
Ugh. honestly loved it so much. there's something about a man who can't talk. just a great book. the world was easy to understand while being elaborate and interesting. the FMC is witty and clever and dont get me started on Creon. His character is so sexy and protective and their dynamic is chefs kiss.
Absolutely amazing. I loved it so much; the plot left enough mystery to keep me fully interested while still keeping all the plotlines tied. this book gave me the best reading hangover. I'm newer to dark academia but not new to dark romance so i wasnt totally sure what the vibes were gonna be but i honestly loved it. the MMC is dark and weird but sexy and flirty and the FMC is just the right amount of naive without being stupid and annoying. a great start to my fall reading list. 12/10 smut (if you like darker themes).
