*****Book review*****
>Feeling Dark, Dark, Dark<
I wasn't looking for a dark bully romance, but that's exactly what I got when I picked up this hockey number. It quickly turns out that Sydney (Syd, mi nena, princess, dream girl) Windsor is in WAAAYYY over her head.
-- Book quote
โI say under a month before you break and get naked with one of us.โ
โAs I said, itโll be a cold day in hell when that happens.โ
-- Sydney Windsor and Oliver Ruiz
There are times when I really dislike the direction of the story, but I can't walk away. It's like I'm glued to the words. Syd, Oliver Ruiz, Carter Masters, and Penn Walker all seem to frequently make poor decisions, which has me about ready to pull out my hair. Ugh!
Except for that ending. That part is awesome. ๐ฅต๐ค
Absolutely check your triggers for this one. A few of the big ones, SA, torture, and self-harm, are present, along with several others. The bullying comes from perceived friends, known foes, and random Joes. The SA is similar. Just like Sydney, I feel surrounded by the tension of it all.
When it comes to the SA. Sara doesn't shy away from very real emotions that can occur for a survivor. The nightmares, shrinking inwards, and finding coping mechanisms, some mechanisms that are neither safe nor healthy.
I borrowed the audio book. The narrators are Alex Kydd, Gregory Salinas, Alyssa Avery, and Teddy Hamilton. I like them all. While it's a shame this isn't in duet, I do appreciate that there's a cast of narrators. ๐ง๐ฉต๐ง
