I'll be honest. I went into this with low expectations. I saw it recommended on reddit and downloaded it on KU. If I had come across it just browsong the store, I don't think I'd have picked it up. I'm usually disappointed by darker characters. They just don't hit the sweet spot for me. Zita and Sepher obliterated it. I was immediately taken in by Zita's confidence. She owns her body and sexuality and doesn't apologize for it.
I love Zita and Sepher's dynamic. I never knew punishment and malicious compliance could be so hot. I loved the pacing and the discovery as they learned more about each other.
The twist wasn't very twisty. Called it pretty early on, but overall I think this is a solid read and I'm really happy I read it.
