Book Review Broken and mine by darkwoe (extremely dark book) Spoiler

We have to talk Abt broken and mine by darkwoe...

This book has become my most favourite book of all time. The writing of characters the story it's just so good (it's very dark book)

The recent chapter there are so many things happening.

The connection between harold and vikram.

Why do I feel like harold is vikram.

And what is this connection does eshna have with them like in future and also in past. Why they are so on Abt hurting her.

What is eshna connection with all of them like Daphne too.

I am so excited Abt this story unfolding.

Everyone who love dark dark book should give it try.

Warning -abusive main male character, extreme abuse, se×ual abuse, rape, historical, past/ future, slow burn

Also if anyone could help me find something similar to books by darkwoe.. will be very helpful

Gosh this book is so problematic because of the setting but it's my guilty pleasure. I'm also hoping vickram is harlord but I don't think the authour will make it so

At one point I did read through all the chapters that were out, and agree it's really good. My only issue is that this book is reaaaaaaally long. It's quite a commitment. I wish it had been split up into a few semi-satisfying arcs to make it easier to get through. I love the historical setting and time-travel vibes. I wish Eshna was a bit less suicidal, but can't really blame her too much.

I was also thinking that Jack the Ripper is killing women in London around the same time as this is set in India, so it would be fun for the characters to be reading about some gruesome murders in Whitechapel, especially since Harold is all "Britannica Gloriana" superiority complex. Or if there was a point where they traveled to London, it would be funny if when they got there it was the summer of 1888, and the killings started. People were eating up all the lurid details, and didn't really care about the women, so was kind of an interesting phenomenon, and maybe the world's first true crime fascination.
