I was expecting more, tbh.

Both characters were interesting. Link's possessiveness raised my eyebrows but in a good way, because of how much he was in love with Ava. Too bad he never explicitly told her though even if she knew...

I wanted more spice though, because the scenes we got were kind of skimmed over. But it wasn't bad? Except for the scene in front of the Syndicate, that was cringe as hell.

Ngl, Mama Mona was an interesting character. Props to the author for not going with Russian as so many authors do, but to read my mother tongue in an English language... Ngl, when I saw “kochanie” I thought this was a printing error, I didn't expect it!

I'm interested in what exactly it is that Damien wanted and how it's gonna impact the Sinners. But I'm not gonna read another book to find out. I wish it was explained in this book instead of the kind of open ending we've got.

The writing wasn't the worst but there were some typos and grammar mistakes. It wasn't as bad as that it pulled me out of the story, but it was definitely noticeable.
