A New Favorite Series? Twisted Love Review

I have seen the Twisted series by Ana Huang all over stores and TikTok. It has been on my reading list for forever but this week I finally indulged and read it thanks to getting a hard copy at the ONU Thrift Club's Blind Date with a Book event. I recommend this book to people who have enjoyed their TikTok romance reads as well as steamy brothers best friend romances. 


He has a heart of ice…but for her, he'd burn the world. Alex Volkov is a devil blessed with the face of an angel and cursed with a past he can't escape. Driven by a tragedy that has haunted him for most of his life, his ruthless pursuits for success and vengeance leave little room for matters of the heart. But when he's forced to look after his best friend's sister, he starts to feel something in his chest:

A crack.
A melt.
A fire that could end his world as he knew it.

Ava Chen is a free spirit trapped by nightmares of a childhood she can't remember. But despite her broken past, she's never stopped seeing the beauty in the world...including the heart beneath the icy exterior of a man she shouldn't want.

Her brother's best friend.
Her neighbor.
Her savior and her downfall.

Theirs is a love that was never supposed to happen-but when it does, it unleashes secrets that could destroy them both...and everything they hold dear.



Ava and Alex's relationship was never one that was ideal throughout the entirety of the book. But that's the sort of romance books I tend to enjoy since I can see how they play out in the end. It did not take me very long to fall in love with both of the characters even though Alex was very standoffish in the beginning. I felt that Ava and I were very similar as we are both bright people who look for the positive in everything and tend to keep a cheerful demeanor.

Typically I will just rent out books from my library at home to read but due to me loving this series so much and having three weeks before I even go home, I bought Kindle Unlimited just so I can finish the series. Safe to say I am really looking forward to the rest of this series and I hope that it is just as good as the first.

Stars: 5

The Maiden, the Guard, and My Mixed Emotions

From Blood and Ash is a book that I believe I originally found recommended to me on TikTok, but a friend recently mentioned it so I thought ...
