✅ I LOVED HOW MORGAN was such a badass character - in fact, she may have been a little too much of a special badass snowflake, but I didn't mind. Oftentimes the FMC in a RH series is absolutely useless so I enjoyed watching Morgan not take any shit from anyone.
❌ THE GUYS WERE kind of vanilla and none of them really stood out to me or captured my interest. It's been a couple of days since I finished this and I definitely would not be able to recall all of their names right now.

❌ IT SEEMS LIKE WE’VE lost the overarching goal or purpose of the story. Other than Oli moping around being bored, I feel like barely anything happened in this book. There needs to be a new plot line or purpose introduced in the next book because the plot right now has become so repetitive and boring
✅ I LIKED SEEING THE the transformation of some of her Bonds and love interests. We’re starting to get some steamier pieces so I have hope that the next book will be even better in this regard ...more

This was really good! But the ending left me feeling a little mehhh so I think I still like the first one better
✅ THE TRIALS OF HELL were fun to read This was really good! But the ending left me feeling a little mehhh so I think I still like the first one better
✅ THE TRIALS OF HELL were fun to read and I enjoyed getting to explore all the creative ways in which hell really sucks haha. I'm always a big fan of "trial" or "tournament" plotlines
❌ I DID NOT LIKE HOW EASILY some of the trials were solved though. It seemed like Keyla would just think of something bizarre that happened to work and idk... seemed too easy for me
I definitely really enjoyed this book but my three stars are pretty much entirely for the interesting plot and the main character.
✅ I WAS HOOKED from I definitely really enjoyed this book but my three stars are pretty much entirely for the interesting plot and the main character.
✅ I WAS HOOKED from the very first chapter. I thought how the story was set up was really smart and it constantly left you wanting to keep reading so you could find out more about Oli's backstory and what her powers are
✅ OLI WAS A SPUNKY and badass fmc and I had a lot of fun with her as the narrator. She definitely had a temper and a bit of a dirty mouth, but I enjoyed it. She gave me El vibes from A Deadly Education because she kept talking about how dangerous she was, as if she was going to be responsible for the end of the world or something. It was a little repetitive, but I still liked it because it made her whole backstory more mysterious
❌ THE RUDENESS AND BULLYING from the love interests was just too extreme for me and really rubbed me the wrong way. It's mostly limited to 2 or 3 out of the 5 love interests, but the number of times they called Oli a "fucking bitch" was about 100 too many and it's just really hard for me to get on board with that. Plus that one scene with Nox... just no ...more
Honestly, I'm not quite sure how I feel about this series at the moment. Some things I really enjoyed while others were a little over the top for me!

❌ STILL DON'T LIKE this Okot person. Honestly, his character was the thing that pissed me off the most. He was randomly introduced in the second book and then thrown away for most of the third book. What did he even bring to the harem? NOTHING!

✅ CUPIDS WERE UNIQUE and I enjoyed this new type of magic. An invisible creature whose job is to blow flirtations and lust around at people is pretty hilarious! I just wish Emelle had used her powers more frequently, but I guess she didn't really have many opportunities
✅ EMELLE'S LONELINESS was written really well. If your job was to make other people fall in love and have sex and you could never talk to anyone, let alone feel anything, life would definitely get pretty lonely
❌ THE ROMANCE was super tame so far. There's obviously a lot of flirting and banter, but there was only one kiss in the entire book! Seems like this is a trend in the rh books I've read so far and I'm not sure if I like it haha. While the slow burn makes the eventual payoff feel soooo amazing, I am super impatient! I am here for some trash smut please ...more

✅ KEYLA WAS HILARIOUS and I loved her internal monologues. I don't know what it is about RH heroines but they're always so sassy and have such a goofy type of humor that is enjoyable to read when you're in the mood for it
✅ I LOVED HOW KEYLA didn't take any shit from the boys and straight up told them every time they did something wrong. She spent years fantasizing about actually meeting them one day... only for them to be ass holes when it finally happened. But she definitely called them out on it ...more
