"Living forever isn't so terribly important."
"What's important then?"
"Freedom."


Ending the year with a light read πŸ˜‡

In case that wasn't clear, I'm being sarcastic, because this was every bit of fucked up as I was promised it'd be.

Fifty Shades who, said this book, then put poor Christian Grey on its kness for a spanking session worthy of its name.

Holy moly, Harley Laroux. I'll have to send you a fruit basket, sometime in the future, for the service you've done to this community.
And by community I mean me. And by service I mean I HAVE SINNED.

Her Soul To Take is so filled with dirty and dark stuff I found myself shrugging and nodding (and also panting a little) at the craziest stuff that happened y the end of it.
You've got a kink? Raelynn and Leon are here for you with their piercings and giant dildos. You don't feel represented enough as a bisexual person? Scoot over, pour yourself some wine and let Daddy Laroux introduce you to two of the sexiest bi disasters this fictional world has to offer.

Can you tell I had fun?
I also had one of the worst episodes of insomnia last night, which means I had some time on my hands and basically devoured this.
And here's the funniest part.
I may have picked this book up for the smut, but I totally stayed for the plot. I know, right??? I definitely didn't expect this to be so entertaining and bone-chilling as it was.
I was totally absorbed into the story and was kept on the edge of my seat for the entire night.
It gave off The Hollow Gods vibes, which is another book I totally loved; the whole small town eerie halo, the cult of fanatics, the freaking mystery. It was better than a movie, and Laroux wrote it so well I almost didn't care about the kinkiest sex I've ever read about.
(Although it was indeed the dirtiest stuff I've ever encountered in a book. And I'm not complaining, mind it.)

On the other hand, I found the dialogues to be a bit stiff at times, and it took me at least 200 pages to finally get into it properly.
I also couldn't seem to notice this seems to have mild anti-religious tones, but I suppose that's to expect on a book where sin personified is one of the main characters.

Raelynn and Leon's chemistry is on another level. I wasn't fully convinced by their romance, at first, but once they started becoming friends, it was undeniable that these two are made for each other and would do anything to keep the other from suffering.
And they would also do anything to each other, if we had to be 100% precise.


Please, remember to read this book only if you've got a very open mind (basically spread out) and if you're not sensitive about certain topics.
In case you're like me and aren't easily impressionable and collect kinks like they're Pokemon cards, this can't miss in your collection.
