This series was not what I expected and I really was pleased about that. Morally grey characters, dark theme, imperfect characters and a good plot.

For a YA book the plot was complex. I enjoyed that the world wasn't beautiful and that the creatures weren't either. Something different.

Please Note: THIS IS NOT A "ROMANCE" BOOK. Don't let #bookstagram / #booktok lie to you. The relationships can be toxic and a far cry from candlelit dinners and kind gestures.
