5 stars!
But the thing with darkness, the thing with pain, was that once you got used to it, you didn't want to let it go.
It’s taken me a while to form the right words for this review, and honestly I don’t even know if I’m going to do it justice. LK Reid once again wrote a story that just completely blew my mind. Right from the start, you’re sucked into a world full of mystery, suspense, and foreboding. The small town of Winworth is dark and filled with secrets and pain and grief. It’s a heavy place.
Our two main characters are Skylar and Ash. I fell in love with both tremendously. Both characters are fighting and struggling internally, and with that, they can’t help but be drawn to one another. But, Skylar is the one person who Ash shouldn’t be drawn to, as he’s come back for redemption for his family, and she’s the one girl who could mess everything up for him. I love that these two find solace in one another, especially for Skylar. These characters have gone through hell and back, and your heart bleeds for them for wanting them to find peace and happiness.
My god. I knew I was gonna love this story, but I didn’t know Apathy was gonna be a top ten 2021 read. Y’all, I’ve already read it twice! This book has some of the best world building and had me at the edge of my seat the whole time. There hasn’t been a book I’ve read in a while where I was anxious the whole time while reading. The way the dangers of this book are set up, the secret societies, the disappearances and everything in between, had me turning page after page without stopping. There’s a whole lot of hurt in this book. A whole lot of ways that that hurt is being dealt with. It’s heartbreaking and emotional, because it's so real and raw. That’s why the chemistry between Ash and Skylar is so beautiful to me. While they may not know everything, they feel it.
If you can't handle cliffhangers, I’d suggest waiting, but my god, do I think it’s worth it. That ending still has me spinning and screaming and everything I thought that was shady was right but I still can't get over it. Book 2 can't come soon enough!

About the author
tragically beautiful.
this is my book introduction to l.k. reid and it was intensely alluring. this book was dark, depraved, emotional, complex, and just tragically beautiful. it’s filled with monsters that hide behind beautiful faces, secrets, lies, and mysteries that wrap around the towns secret society/ cult. sky, she has my heart. i have felt so deeply with her throughout this book. i was able to relate in so many ways. and they way lk was able to put into words what people go through when it comes to mental illness. & the thoughts that threaten to consume you and drag you down… and no matter how much you want to talk to someone about it, you’re unable to. and it fucken sucks. . . . despite the undeniable chemistry and pull the mc’s have towards each other, will they be able to stay together and face all the darkness and pain that is inevitable? — from beginning to that mind blowing end, this story consumed me. left me with so much questions that i desperately need answered… but i’ll wait patiently for book two of the series. 🥴😭
