Hi, This is me reading and reviewing hyped up books part 788 so welcome..

I will be honest, I really have no idea what to write except that it was a great book but would I ever think about it again? Probably not. So I will instead talk about things I like or not like or both in this review,


Writing - One of the (most important) reasons for this book to be such a hit I believe was its writing, it was genuinely beautiful. It was so hard for me to find quotes because throughout the entire book, the most mundane of actions were written so gracefully, I didn't know when a quote started and when did it end.


Plot - My first book with the war as the main focus?? I don’t sincerely know what was the main plot of the book. War, romance or a secret third thing? In some way, I felt that I didn’t get much of both. Like they both felt as if they were not the most important thing, they both seemed subplots and were treated by me as such. (the secret third thing was the main plot)


Characters - I liked both the characters, the pureness of Roman and dedication of Iris. Quoting Iris, “I think you and I are simply better together, Kitt�.. Yes, I agree. One can see that they belonged together but I wanted more difficulties, more angst and more tension and that wouldn’t be quite possible with my baby Roman literally being obsessed with Iris. He was a breath of fresh air after all the alpha beta males I have read. I needed to know men can simply be nice. Also Iris, you are great (i don't have much to say but felt bad to not say anything about her)..... Another thing which I liked was how unimportant they were, how replaceable.. Genuinely I was tired of my main characters causing and leading wars, I wanted someone to simply exist as the gods did whatever they wanted to and that was in this book�


I sometimes thought the book fell flat and was unable to draw emotions out of me, I believe it was rather monotonous.. Like when Iris’s mother died, I wanted to feel more but all i felt was, yaay less money wastage (i swear i am a better person in real life)

I also believe lots of things will change in the  next book but yaa, bye!!


Fav quote - “I love the words I write until I soon realise how much I hate them, as if I am destined to always be at war within myself.�
