3.0

Not the best book I ever read, but definitely enjoyable. The first part of the book is

very light and mostly romance and sex, then

(quite suddenly) in the

last 3 chapters

a lot of random stuff is added and the plot moves very fast. Would recommend if you’re looking for a light read. Has steamy scenes for every sexual interest (vanilla/kinky/etc) and the characters are likeable. I also liked the chosen family aspect of the book; very warm and kind.

dark mysterious medium-paced

3.0

This is the author's first published book, and it shows. The characters feel pretty flat, and the pacing is all over the place. And I like smut, but there were quite a lot of sex scenes, so many that it felt like most of the narrative thrust of the book only happened in the last third.
