A Touch of Darkness
by Scarlett St. Clair
JUST A WASTE OF TIME. PLEASE DON'T READ THIS.
This book is my first ever BOOKTOK MADE ME READ books. And omfg I can't even know where to start with this one.
I just can't read this anymore. It's beyond boring. It's atrociously bland and stereotypical. After only five pages of the book, i concluded that the writing was worse than the featured Wattpad stories on the app. Like wtf. I'd love to quote HILLARIOUS passages but i just don't have the energy or the will power to go through that trash again.
I kept seeing the book pop up on booktok and it intrigues me (one because of the cover. Two because it was described as enemies to lovers AND FANTASY)
First and foremost, this book is definitely not fantasy. There might be some elements but it feels more like a paranormal romance than anything else. I LOATHE PARANORMAL ROMANCES. The book is NOT enemies to lovers. From the very first moment the MC encounters Hades she is consumed by the guy. THE DESCRIPTION! That's a horrifying site in itself! Hades was described as everything dark and mysterious with A LOT of exaggeration and typical WATTPAD vocabulary. "That man was now staring at her.
She couldn’t tell the color of his eyes, but they ignited a fire under her skin, and it was like he knew; his full lips curved into a harsh smile, drawing attention to his strong jaw covered in dark stubble. He was big, well over six and a half feet tall, and dressed in darkness from his inky hair to his black suit. Her throat went dry and she was suddenly uncomfortable. She fidgeted and crossed her legs, instantly regretting the move, because the man’s gaze fell there and held for a moment before sliding back up her frame, snagging on her curves. The fire pooled low in her stomach, reminding her of how empty she felt, how desperately she needed to be filled up.
Who was this man, and how could she possibly feel this way about a stranger? She needed to break this connection that had created such a suffocating energy between them." oh and there was the dreaded YA mary sue line "she held her breath without knowing it, and forced herself to inhale"
I'll remind you that this ins there very first encounter. They haven't even talked or anything just seen each other. I don't want to go on about this cause it was awful. If i could I'd give this a MINUS FIVE out of Five stars tbh.
