i really enjoyed this in that i Loved being in the minotaur's head and havung him become a fully fleshed out character and i LOVED seeing more of dionysus and ariadne was maybe one of my favorite fmcs in the series but like
sinilar to midnight ruin this feels like (at least to me) a stepping stone to get to the last three books because they're the most anticipated of the series and i KNOW they're gonna be bangers. but i did still thoroughly enjoy this one!

absolutely blessed to have got my hands on a physical arc of this book bc i love ml rio and she has proven, once again, that she writes the perfect thriller for little old me.
i want this book to have been longer because i want to bask in the beautiful prose and follow this eccentric cast of characters until the end of time but i think it's actually perfect this way. quick and jarring and as fitful as a terrible night's sleep. ml rio you will ALWAYS be famous to meπ

i don't even know how to talk abt this book tbh... what a talent to be writing a thriller but its so literary and purposeful and important that i didn't even realize it was a thriller until i got to the plot twist.........

flabbergasted.
i worried this was going to get typical first-book-in-a-series treatment and be mostly exposition but it was NOT!!! so so so excited to get more into the series, but it always feels wrong giving the first book 4+ star rating idk...

disappointing.
i loved cal even tho he was kind of a bum for most of the book. alana just annoyed the FUCK out of me like how are you so immature at your big age and have NO grace for people who are making a real effort. also way too long. no contemporary romance is so serious that it needs to be nearly 600 pages. ridiculous.
cal and cami's relationship was the best part of the book but i still think bi cal would've made for a more compelling story idk tho! but the ending was deeply satisfying fuck seth kane you make my heart so sad.
i do fear declan is my favorite kane sibling when all is said and done.
