alright, this was really kinda awful. it’s like ghost bird x those kerry taylor books, but worse.
for one, it’s the same old story told time and againalright, this was really kinda awful. it’s like ghost bird x those kerry taylor books, but worse.
for one, it’s the same old story told time and again in the reverse-harem world - poor naive girl who has been locked in a basement for years on end, finally enters the real world and BOOM everyone and their mum is obsessed with her. why? we don’t know. oh and also she’s a genius with photographic memory who instantly understands all textbooks.
anyway, after being immediately bombarded by, oh *checks notes* SEVEN men, and despite facing torture and sexual abuse many, many times throughout her life, our main girl instantly feels “safe� and “protected� and has an “instant bond� with these random, 6ft tall (minimum), super buff, incredibly smart, shockingly good looking men, who will NOT leave her alone. EVER. there’s maybe one guy who’s a little tech nerd, and he’s still super good looking and can fight, of course. we’ve all heard this story before, yes?
and despite declaring that they’ll protect her forever, and are always on her side, all SEVEN of these men never notice the (very obvious) signs of a terrible home life, and also never succeed in actually protecting her. i’m almost certain she’ll get kidnapped at some stage in book 2 BECAUSE IVE READ THIS STORY BEFORE.
anyway. it was kinda bad. and there was a serial killer of course. and if all that isn’t bad enough, all the men think she’s 17 years old (and to be fair, in worldly experience she’s probably like 10) and yet they keep pursuing her and talking about how much they want her, despite a couple being her teachers/guidance counsellors.

I really liked that the protagonists actually bonded and became friends with each other instead of diving straight into a relationship - and I thought the fmc’s character development was so well done. I was so proud of her by the end, I got much more invested in these characters than I thought!!
Some of the plot was a bit ridiculous, sure, and these characters definitely needed a little therapy instead of the whole “being with her fixed me� thing, but whatever. I had fun and they were such cutie pies! Plus I liked the side characters, they were such loyal friends who also had a personality! Always wonderful.
Quick, addictive, fun, but also serious at times and with some gorgeous character growth. Super adorable! ...more

this was entertaining for sure! i did think the fmc was a little stupid sometimes - she'd overhear secret convos (that kinda spelled out exactly what this was entertaining for sure! i did think the fmc was a little stupid sometimes - she'd overhear secret convos (that kinda spelled out exactly what was happening...) or receive a book that ALSO explained everything, but then she'd just forget about the convo, or not follow it up, or not read further in the book? girl stop pissing me off. even once she started connecting some dots, she was still acting a little too dumb for my liking. also she brushed over her entire family's death reallll fast.
but other than that, this was addictive, highly amusing trash, and the characters were fun. plus some of the plot concepts were pretty interesting! now i await book 2......more
