did not like it

Not worth any of the hype this author gets. This is the worst series I’ve ever read. The characters are very different from the first book, although I didn’t like either version of them. The FMC is downright annoying. The author uses slang and is highly repetitive. This is most definitely not a RH. She’s a virgin through the first two books only to have sex three times total in this one? The third time is literally one sentence about the positions they were in and that’s it. She doesn’t even have sex with each of them. It’s fine but it’s just weird. I’ve included some of the most painful quotes from this book because I’ve gotten so tired of explaining my problems with this author from her other books so now you can see for yourself how bad her writing is.

“I inched closer to the window, prepared to dramatically throw my body through it in a display of sheer unwellness.”
As I’ve mentioned in my previous reviews of the series unwell and unwellness(not even a word) are the authors favorite words. She never uses any synonyms either and repeats them incessantly throughout the series in reference to all characters.

“Armor-clad soldiers streamed over the horizon, an unfathomable army that never ended. The sheer numbers were unfathomable.” Really. This should have been edited out. Goes to show no one did edit this book.

“Low-key, I was way too young for this.” Why. Why did she include slang. She also said vibe a lot and it’s weird.

Says “in another life” 5 times within the VERY SAME SCENE and then said “in this life” immediately after that. Why.

“As a reward” or “rewarded her” 3 times in the same (very short) scene which was supposed to be steamy and was just annoying because it was so poorly written.

“As the kids say these days, ‘It was lit.’” Again why the slang. Also weird coming from the FMC who acts like a child and is repeatedly called dumb in the series.

“I proceeded to learn a very important lesson: it’s impossible to strangle yourself with toilet paper.” Are you f*ing kidding me.

“While it was hard to remember sometimes, everything wasn’t all about me.” The FMC is so annoying I wanted to punch her repeatedly.

If you’ve read all of this you should understand by now that this series is a painful experience. Please don’t waste your time. And if you need more convincing the ending sucked. The plot never comes together and at the end I actually found myself saying wtf is even going on right now. She actually found a way to justify the horrible abuse and tryna the FMC endured her entire life. And the books could’ve all be paired down so much. She decided it was a good idea to include the same exact scenes from multiple POVs. As in she wrote a chapter from the FMC pov and then repeated the same thing from a male POV it was unnecessary and unbearable. I promise you it does not get better. There is no light at the end of the tunnel. There’s a perfect example of the correct way to repeat the same thing while saying it DIFFERENTLY a lesson the author never learned. Please stop publishing her books.
