I don’t know if it’s a combination of me not particularly having a mask kink myself, overhype from Booktok or finding the female narrator’s voice uninspiring for Aly’s POV chapters but the story went kind of flat for me somewhere midway through. It’s funny in a great way for dark romance but maybe just not my five star cup of tea. ]]> UserChallenge57230325 Wed, 01 Jan 2025 08:32:19 -0800 <![CDATA[ Draven has challenged herself to read 25 books in 2025. ]]> /user/show/6094540-draven 11627 Create your own 2025 Reading Challenge » ]]> ReadStatus8731065158 Tue, 10 Dec 2024 22:05:33 -0800 <![CDATA[Draven wants to read 'Twelve Who Ruled: The Year of the Terror in the French Revolution']]> /review/show/7075667104 Twelve Who Ruled by R.R.

I’m genuinely confused that a book titled “NSFW� had the most SFW sex scenes I’ve read in a while. Near fade to black cop outs. Which is a shame, because the banter was fun but just too PG for me in writing style. ]]>
