Sweet Vengeance

Oh this was highly enjoyable.

I'm starting to think I haven't read NEARLY enough revenge fantasies for my liking because this one was absolutely magnificent. Not only do we get a plus-sized POC as the MC but there are also themes of gender and sexuality?? A bisexual MC? Snippets of Nigerian culture? God this was so good. The romance was soooo sweet too. This was a quick read but it was so good I wished it was longer.

The emotions involved in this were very real as well. I think the author approached Joy's trauma and the lingering effects of what she went through very well. The book puts a respectable amount of time in engaging you in the aftereffects of what she went through while also making it clear that what she wants above anything else is revenge for what she went through and, besides a few moments of human wondering, it doesn't try to go the route of “she knows what she's doing in wrong” or anything like that. Always a refreshing attitude to have and it makes the whole story 10x more enjoyable.

I just can't recommend this book enough to be honest. I enjoyed every second of it.

I loved the way this story developed, I also think it balanced things very well between plot and spicy scenes. I felt just as invested in the story as I was in the smut, and I genuinely enjoyed the prose so much. There are some things I didn't enjoy very much though, for example, how often the character's lips twitch. This is also a bit of a personal preference, but there are parts of the story where real world things like tv shows are referenced, and because you need outside knowledge of what these things are, it can feel corny when they were brought up (especially in succession).

Okay this was just what I needed. The right mix of vengeance and smut to get me out of a reading slump

Cute read

I really needed a low stakes and cozy read after a lot of heavy Fantasies and this hit the spot!

I absolutely loved this book. This book is dark but it's sweet moments of these two. Great book and the spicy in the book omg love it
