Hilarious, Desolate, Terrifying, Beautiful

Revisado: 01-31-25

Hell yeah, dude.

Probably the sweetest, most beautiful ending to a horror novel I've ever read.

Disappointing and filled with 1 dimensional tropes of Southern identity

Revisado: 01-30-25

I was genuinely shocked when I finished this book, and almost entirely because I couldn't believe the author of Seed could write this. It wasn't scary or suspenseful, since it was so predictable. It wasn't gory or horrific, since the violence is mostly alluded to and the only horror aspect is really the concept of the story. Felt like a bad C horror movie trying to rip off Deliverance.

Sexual assault is scarier than spider aliens

Revisado: 03-23-24

The embarrassing Christian Bale Batman voice is one thing. The fainting ingenue woman voice that sounds suspiciously like AI is another. The overzealous attempts at worldbuilding dumping so much detail and language in the first hour is yet a third thing.

The fact that she teaches him "no" and he respects it every single time up until he literally sexually assaults her is....something else entirely. The "this is absolutely rape/clearly showing lack of consent and desire/but oh no! what is my body doing??? oof hnnn the ~pleasure~ I can't believe I'm enjoying this" trope is disgusting, overused, embarrassing, and unconscionable.

Fucking gross. You should be ashamed of yourself and all of the bots you paid to get this book to 4.5 stars.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go re-read some of my favorite monster romances that don't use rape scenes as an empty plot device. Ya know, cuz it's not that fucking hard to write a romance novel without one. 🤙🏽

Uncreative, poorly written, horrifically narrated, solid D- for effort

Revisado: 01-30-24

I don't even know how to write a review sufficiently cruel enough to convey how ashamed everyone involved in the publishing of this book should be.

Katee Robert has a great track record of overwhelmingly disappointing smut but this actually goes down as one of the worst books I've ever read.

No plot. No character growth. Not Like the Other Girls™️ weak waif, barely thought out and generic FMC. Uncreative, questionable, lackluster sex scenes on every page. How do you write so poorly that a 4 person vampire blood orgy is a boring and repulsive boner killer?

Bruh 💀 The half vampire needing Plan B was like 2 hours in and enough for me to nope out alone. The morning sickness trope? The blatant Breaking Dawn ripoff pregnancy plot?

AND THAT NARRATOR. Oh my GOD girl get a diction coach and stop ending every sentence with your weird ass ingenue sigh as punctuation. Absolutely ruined an already horrible read.

I love to hateread bad smut but Wattpad wouldn't even let this fly.

A precious interlude

So cute, absolutely precious and endearing in just the right way. it's so impressive to have such a successful plot and character development in so short a story.

3rd read, still adore it

Revisado: 07-12-22

Adorable, macabre, hilarious, and endearing. Wonderful narration and starts off an amazing series with a bang for sure.

A good narrator that makes the spicy bits mild 😭

Revisado: 04-13-22

I honestly love Matthew Lloyd Davies in all of the KJ Charles books but my only complaint is that he narrates just about the least sexy scenes I've ever heard. So much gritted teeth. It sounds more like a fistfight than sex half the time.

Besides that another fun, very digestible, relatively spicy period piece that I really enjoyed. Great to throw on, hard to get lost if you're multitasking, funny, sweet, and unpretentious. :)

Cute in the best way, easy read, satisfying end

Revisado: 04-03-22

It was a sweet book and lots of fun. I liked the twist, and it wasn't overwhelmingly predictable or convoluted. Overall the word I'd use is "precious."

Not as engaging as I hoped

Revisado: 02-24-22

Extremely powerful nearly all-woman cast of characters reduced to self-sacrificing damsel in distress tropes.

There's no way English people are this awkward.

Revisado: 01-29-22

The narrator really tried with different voices and stuff and it was very cute, but he sounded like he'd just had a double espresso the whole time, even during the sex scenes, which just added to his incredibly awkward the dialog already made them. A very interesting take on magic and a good story, really. Just overall, the word I'd use would be awkward.
