gracew 's review for:

These Violent Delights by Chloe Gong
3.0
dark fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I mean this is a solid three. I didn't love it the way that a lot of people appear to love it (it could be because there was some content that made me super uncomfortable, check the TW's) but I mostly just.... didn't love the world building or the romance overly much. It's too bad because the characters themselves are pretty great but I just didn't get behind the romance and the romance is so much of the story. Not a bad book but not my favorite.
