Ik vond dit boek veel beter dan ik had verwacht! Het boek is spicy, maar ik vond dit goed in het verhaal passen. Adrian is ook echt geweldig. Hij is duister en mysterieus. Hij heeft vreemde acties, maar zijn beweegredenen zijn op het einde logisch en helder. Ik vond dat het verhaal een goed verhaallijn had en dat de spice daar helemaal geen afbreuk op deed. Ook vond ik het plot slim bedacht. Ik zelf had halverwege de puzzelstukjes al bij elkaar gevonden, maar ik wou perse doorlezen om te zien of ik gelijk had. Het boek staat vol mooie quotes en uitspraken. Het eindigt een beetje op een cliffhanger, dus ik ga zeker de andere delen lezen als deze vertaald zijn! Ik heb de prachtige limited edition mogen ontvangen van zomer&keuning en ik kan je vertellen dat deze zo ontzettend mooi is. De schrijfstijl van deze auteur is in dit boek wederom erg prettig. Het boek leest snel weg en ik vind dat het heel beeldend geschreven is. Ik voel echt alle emoties die door het boek worden beschreven, alsof ik het zelf meemaakt. Ik vond het echt een perfect boek en het had zeker een 5 ster kunnen zijn als het woord "neuken" niet zovaak voor zou komen. Het woord "neuken" klinkt zo bot en grof. Ik had het veel fijner gevonden als er een andere benaming gebruikt werkt. Ik stoor me bijvoorbeeld veel minder aan het woord "seks", omdat dit veel minder grof klinkt. Ook stonden er wat spelfouten in. Ik heb ondanks deze kleine punten wel enorm genoten van het boek.

I don’t have any intellectual thoughts to include with this five stars. I just really enjoyed my time with this one. I had been stuck in a car for several hours on a road trip and I’d say my time was well spent :) Definitely going to pick up the second book from my library, I need to know what happens next❤️❤️❤️

I wanted to like this more than I did.
There is a tad too much focus on the smut, and not quite enough on plot or character development for my personal taste. But it was a very easy and quick read that I still enjoyed. Currently have rented and am reading the next book in the series because I’m curious enough that I wanted to know what might happen next lol.

My expectations were very low for this book, but I enjoyed it. There is more plot and emotion than I expected. I found the cuts between the emotional moments and the sex scenes jarring, but hey different people cope in different ways I guess. The MC felt very realistic to me. She takes her emotions out on others by starting fights when she's upset, so I can see why some people found her annoying. She also took forever to figure out the very-foreshadowed reveal, but I thought that was supposed to be some dramatic irony where the reader knows before the character. 

Throughout the book, I always felt the need to know what happened next. I picked up the sequel asap. I really love some of the supporting characters, though I feel several are under-developed. Overall, I'd say it's mostly well-written prose. There are a few glaring flaws, but if you can look past them, it's a fun read.
