Deviants (Badlands Book 2) Kindle Edition
I’m not broken, I’m just a little damaged.
My heart may be bleeding, but I’m stronger now, stronger than I ever knew.
And it’s all because of him.
This is only the beginning, but I already know how it’s going to end.
I’ll be claiming my throne and anyone who fucked me over will be buried beneath my feet.
HERS.
There’s not a warning out there that could prepare anyone for this.
*Deviants is book two in the Badlands series and will conclude Romero and Cali’s story.*

Best DARK BOOK IVE EVER READ!

- Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2019Dear Ms. Bennett,
You have ruined me in the best possible ways. This book was amazingly f'ed up. Morbidly twisted and beautifully Deviant. Never in a million years would I ever thought to read a book with so many taboos and come out in the end with my heart swelling with so much love.
You touched on so many things. Made the villains look like heroes and made me want to read more.
Some parts had my jaw dropping in awe. Things that were said that made me shake my head and laugh. I love this series. I love Ramero and Cali.
Grimm, Cobra, and Arlen. I don't want this series to end. I can't wait to buy Outcast and get started on Grimm and Arlen's book. He is my favorite character next to Rome.
I can't wait to see what you do with his book. I want to thank you for opening up that twisted brain and allow those messed up thoughts of yours to flow onto paper for me to devour and lose sleep over. It was worth staying up until 3:30 plastered to every page.
I was clinging to every word like a lifeline. Telling myself not even to lie and say things like "just one more chapter" there was no way I was going to sleep until this was done. I stayed up even later to make sure I wrote this review. There was no having to think of what rating I was going to give.
This was five messed up, devil loving stars.
Ava Santans and goodnight!
- Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 20243.5 ⭐️. I actually loved the story. It was written very well, even though there were several missed editing opportunities. It would have been a 5 ⭐️ read, except Rome didn’t treat Cali like his queen. He treated her like a child. Lied to her, kept things from her. Planned to continue doing it. That’s not a king/queen relationship. That’s an adult/child relationship. It was disappointing to the maximum degree. Cali was portrayed as this badass female, but the way she was treated completely illegitimized that portrayal. Freaking disappointing.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2018Let me just gush for a moment before I get into my actual review. This book broke me, I am honestly ruined for a while in the dark reads world and I know it. I FLOVED this book! I will harass everyone and force them to read this series. My favorite genre is dark and this blows everything I've EVER read out of the water! EVERYTHING!
"Romeo was my plus one, my other half. He was my reflection in a mirror full of cracks and missing pieces". - Cali
"I'm the queen to your king, if I go down then your going with me"!
-Cali
This story picks up directly after the end of Savages and you cannot read Deviants alone! So if you haven't read Savages STOP HERE!
Now back to Deviants I cannot tell you much since you need to experience this story for yourself but if you have triggers of any kind DO NOT READ THIS SERIES! this is no doubt the darkest story I've ever read! The themes, the plot, the characters everything in this book is dark, even the love and squishy moments in this story are hardcore and not for the faint of heart. I will tell you nothing about what happens in this story, but if you loved Savages and are a sick puppy like me when you come to the end you will be slightly disgusted and have a smile on your face I PROMISE YOU! Now I have a strong stomach and I even got queezy over some of the content in this book, I honestly had to take a breather and walk away numerous times... So be warned
Stars... Heck I'd give this book all the stars and awards and even my first born (kidding) over how awesome and obsessed I was to see how everything played out! I have literally nothing to say besides throwing glitter and confetti at Natalie and the amazing job she did with this twistedly amazing love story! And it may be bloody and anarchy filled but I still loved the love story of Romero and Cali and I truly hope there's more of them in Arlens story which I'm truly excited for! BRAVO Natalie! BRAVO! this book destroyed my soul!
Even psychos can find love in the storm <3

- Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2020As much as I love the depraved insane characters and hate what little we are given about the world, I feel this was a great continuation of the story.
This book is gory, bloody, and so effed up that I can't help but like it. The author takes the worst of the worst and spins it into gold... that is if you like horror. And I sure do.
What I didn't like is that the author falls into the trap of letting exceptionally original characters who thrive on a lack of morals and excel at being the worst kind of people to run into in a dystopian setting, and deciding to humanize then and make them more normal by having a baby in the middle of chaos. Really? Okay then.
Also, there are no reasons given as to why society has collapsed. Again, at least a mention of some sort of cause would be appreciated.
Then there are the spelling, formatting, and grammatical errors all throughout the book. I can overlook these when the story is as outstanding as this normally, but at the end of the book, she thanks her editor. She clearly didn't bother reading the book herself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hmmm
This was not the type of series I would usually read but it kept me captivated. I loved Romero and Calista because they were real for some reason. It was unusual but I became attached to those characters and I’m glad I could take them to the end.
- Ally's Book BlogReviewed in the United Kingdom on February 22, 2018
5.0 out of 5 stars Deviants is as Savagely twisted and delightfully wicked as book 1!
Deviants is as Savagely twisted and delightfully wicked as book 1, a bloodbath of fun from head to toe! I enjoyed seeing Romero's and Calista's unique relationship develop into their own version of love in the midst of all the insanity that consumes and surrounds them.
There are lots of shocking revelations and surprises throughout the story, keeping me as addicted to the story as Romero and Calista are to each other. Their devotion to each other, while strange and convoluted was kind of sweet with a huge dose of lets cause carnage and mayhem.
Vivid and occasionally gut churning imagery, character backgrounds with all the bases covered. Natalie did a wonderful job with the writing which brought to life all of her characters and their surroundings, creating a convincing post-apocalyptic survival undertone.
I had alot of fun trying to piece together the big picture while enioying all this story had to offer; plot twists, blood and gore, kinky sex, as well as all manner of strange and devious torture that Natalie and her characters can think up!
- Michaella DieterReviewed in the United Kingdom on August 11, 2020
4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent dark series!
4 stars only because it needs a bit of editing. This is a fantastic dark series. Natalie Bennett manages once again to bring us a dark and twisted tale full of death, revenge, betrayal and love.
Would very much recommend and am looking forward to what else Natalie has in store for us in the future! 💜
- LeanneReviewed in the United Kingdom on September 5, 2020
5.0 out of 5 stars Deviants
Although really dark and graphic I loved Cali and Romes story so hard.
I can't wait to read more about them but im very much looking forward to reading about Arlen and Grimm in the next book!
- SamsaraReviewed in the United Kingdom on November 28, 2023
2.0 out of 5 stars Got bored
Couldn’t finish this book. Lots of violence and rough smut but the plot was a bit all over the place with just too many things taking too long to be revealed. It reminded me of when I watch Hostel - lots of shock factor and gore but very little in the way of substance and I just got bored. Got to seventy odd percent but just couldn’t force myself to carry on.
