I liked Neledi as a character but also had some issues with her which I’ll get to in a minute. I liked the character growth. I LOVED Likotsi and I thought that the ending was actually very satisfying. 

 

However, despite the fact that the plot sounded really interesting I hated most of the tropes: lack of communication and knowing that the longer you wait to tell someone something the worse it gets but still wait anyway, thinking that you’re not deserving of love due to past trauma, 

 

Portia was the biggest disappointment because she’s supposed to be her best friend and she basically failed at that job. The one time she doesn’t answer your call (because shes asleep) you accuse her of choosing dick over you. Drunk or not that was unacceptable. And then you suspect that the guys she’s been spending time with is lying about his identity and you don’t say anything???  Hell Portia’s sister was a better friend to Ledi in the one scene that she was in compared to Portia in the entire fucking book  

 

 

 

Thabiso not having time to tell her but having time to fuck her I was not okay with. Frankly most of the excuses just felt really convenient. I personally don’t know if I could have ever let it get as far as it did considering he called her a St. Bernard the first day they met. I’m not going to tolerate being disrespected. I’m just not.

 

 

 

While I liked Neledi, I was irritated with the way she refused to stick up for herself and always feeling like she had something to prove to people who didn’t even give a fuck about her (her boss)

 

 

 

As soon as the uncle had been mentioned earlier I knew that he was gonna be a shady bitch. 

 I also didn’t like the way that the queen treated Ledi. Granted her reasons did somewhat make sense you would think that if your best friend fled the country out of nowhere she must have had a good reason  

 

I did enjoy reading this, the ending was satisfying and I am going to attempt to continue the series.
