I love this world and these characters. There's this mix of darkness and hope that I appreciate. Not a fan of the romance in this one though.

A good time. Didn't love the romance, but only because I'm not into "fated mates."

SMP better be happy this book is under the boycott because I have nothing nice to say about it.

Despite being WAY too confusing, I was leaning on giving this a 3, but when the book said people only cosplay as a fetish and cons only happen for people to have s*x? I was out. I was so excited about a book set in a city I know well, but nothing made sense.

I really related to the main character, but she was also a lot. And the romance wasn't as developed as I usually like. Still cute.

I really enjoyed the writing and the plot! Despite it feeling a bit slow in the middle, I was really engrossed in the story and loved the characters. The ending was a bit too rushed, but still good.

I think I'm a cozy horror fan. The subtle horror was much more gripping than the other stuff I've read. I just don't know how I feel about the cult being satanic.

This just felt a lot of the same, and apparently I'm not the biggest fan of time skips. There was 1 too many in this book.

That train system was pretty confusing, and I wish there were more levels for each volume. But the lore drop was great and I just love these characters so much! I love this world.
