Review & thoughts:

Body of Chaos is the first book in a Dark Fantasy Romance series and a retelling of Rapunzel. I’ve just finished reading it and I’m in shock because OMG that ending! I NEED the next book now!

This book was definitely NOT what I was expecting and it surprised me in such a good way. I really liked the world building, it was a mix of a fantasy world and a modern one and the author mixed them in a really unique and interesting way, I would love to know even more about it and hope we will explore more of this world in the next books. 

The main character, Ripley, seemed a bit childish in the beginning despite being 21 years old, but she grew so much and I really loved her at the end of the book and can’t wait to read more about her. I also enjoyed the romance, Ripley and Fletcher were amazing together and I can’t wait to see where the author takes them in the next book. 

This book was fast paced, there was so much happening that I was constantly on the edge of my seat and there was honestly not a single boring moment, but that cliffhanger was brutal! 

Body of Chaos is a really great Dark Fantasy Romance & Rapunzel retelling. I usually prefer big books, but this one was such a fun and quick read, I’m definitely going to reread it soon and I can’t wait for the sequel.
