This was absolutely impossible to put down. The Shadows Between Us is the Slytherin romance of your dreams and can only be described as delightfully wicked.
My edition is from Fairyloot and the purple and black cover is stunning. I think the normal version is red and black, but the special one stole my heart. It's. So. Beautiful.
And then I opened the book and only put it back down once I was finished. It has just the right length to binge read but at the same time, I wanted another 1000 pages in this world with these characters.
I love that we don't really have many typical "good guys" or "nice" characters here. Levenseller went full-on Slytherin and I'm here for it. The main character Alessandra is super badass and doesn't give a fuck. I want to be best friends with her. Also, she designs and sews her own clothes with is such a cool addition to the character.
The story unfolds nicely, comes with many interesting twists and turns. While I may have found the end a tiny little bit cheesy, it was to be expected and I'm not really mad about it.
