Book Reviews: Razing Grace Part 1 & Part 2 by Amo Jones

Hello there guys. I wanna try to write a proper reviews again. So, the book I chose for today review is Razing Grace. Hahahahah. Get ready for some fucked-upness.

           Let's begin with the book synopsis, shall we? Warning, SPOILER ALERTS!


I was light, and I was pure. Until I wasn’t..

Millie
I’m Millie Hart, and for as long as I can remember, I’ve dedicated my life to my Catholic faith. It was a part of me every step of the way. So when I decided to join a nunnery, no one in my family was surprised. I’m not sure at what point my life changed or where it went extremely wrong. My nightmares are becoming realities as my world starts to slowly tremble under the ground I’m presently shackled to. I was taken. Everything I thought I knew was about to rain down on me in drops of lies, deceit, and undiluted evil. 

Tripp/Raze
I’m more machine than man. I’m the alpha and the omega of The Army, and the leader of The 6 masked huntsmen. I live and bleed this life. The arms that raised me weren’t carrying love— they were carrying knives and AKs. I’m agent 000, the executioner, and the damn devil who walks in the flesh. No one can break through my hard shell— not even her.




         I read this book on February 17, 2017, so it was almost last year. I don't remember much of it but I will tell you the gist of the story from what I can remember.

         This book is dark. The girl, Millie, she was kidnapped by the hero, Tripp. My god, I thought Tripp was the villain in the book. I seriously do. What he and his group of friends(not sure they are all his buddies, more like close acquaintances) did to her. OHMYGOD. It was pure and simply said, rape. The girl was raped and sexually abused by the hero and his friends. Repeatedly. Honestly, I couldn't digest it at first. I was horrified over what happened. I almost dropped it right there and there. But that evil voice in my head soothes me. Well, I was in a bad situation at that time, (loooonngg story), so I prevailed.

          By the half of the book, I was kinda like desensitized and felt raw. I think that's what Millie also felt after her capture. She was a nun, you see and the event changed her life. Turned her into a more devil-may-care attitude.

Please. I was held captive in a damn cell with massive masked men who wanted to eat me alive for seven days and then sell me to the highest bidder. A girl with no emotion and nothing to lose can be a very dangerous weapon up against girls who care entirely too much about what shoes match what outfit. ~Millie

         She turned out to be a badass in the end. That was the moment when I went crazy nuts (I think she did too). There was no more taboo things for her. There was this scene in the book where Millie, Tripp, Miles (the second love interest here) and another girl going at it. It was like an public sex/orgy or something and all I could remember was chuckling at it. Hahahah. I was that messed up to even feel hot about it. (Told you, I was in a bad place in my life).

Hooded, needy, hot and heavy. “I want—” I pause as words spin in my head. 

“Huh? And what is it you want, pet?” He steps up toward me, his hands finding mine instantly. Tilting his head, I watch as his eyes run freely over my body. Dropping his mouth down to my ear, he skims his lips over the rim of my lobe. “You want me to slam you over this table and fuck you until you scream? Hmm? Until you can’t feel the fucking legs you walk on, or until you don’t even know your own fucking name?” 

 “You don’t scare me, executioner.”

“Yeah? You should be.” 

A dark giggle leaves me as I bring my face back down to his. “What’s the worst that could happen?” I ask him, slowly grinding down over his bulge. “What? That I like it?” I add, my fingers wrapping around the back of his thick neck. “Newsflash, baby,” I smirk, dropping my lips down to his and running my slick tongue across the rim of his bottom lip. “You taught me how to love it.” 

          Told you so.

Can something that burns so rapidly calm the whispering chaos of your cries? Or is this all just an illusion. The perfect hypnosis. Like the humming of a sweet melody to your frantic brain.
Drip.
Blood trickled over the curve of Millie’s collarbone.
Drip.
Slithering over her shoulder.
Drip.
Sliding off and into the mass puddle of death surrounding her.
The last petal has fallen, a queen is born, and the disarray of her world is about to shatter under her very throne.

Raze
“She knows too much…”

          Now, moving onto the second book. Hahahahah. It's a bit more tame than the first book actually. No orgy scene or sex scene with other peeps watching or something like that. There was still descriptive sex scene with gore and blood (and intestines if I wasn't mistaken)... and a tragic loss. Though I welcome the change of pace of the second one, deep down I want it be more messed up than the first book. But I'm okay with it in the end.

          Overally, the book got a 5 stars for me. I love it despite the fucked-upness. It was what I wanted at the moment and I'm glad a piece of my dark soul got it. Hell, it had been awhile since I did a review. But yeah, welcome back to a piece of my mind and I'll try to come up with some reviews here and there.

           That is all folks. I gotta get me some me-time. Buhbye.
