My Review: Whew! Where to start this review?
C.C. Lopez is a new author to me and Masked has made me a forever fan. I try to keep a wide range when it comes to reading because I never know what will catch my attention. When I read the description I was drawn in. This didn't sound like your typical dark romance. I will preface the rest of my Review with read the trigger warnings. If you can be open minded, you should definitely try this out. I'm not squeamish but there were parts that made my stomach turn in the best way. I felt like a child peeking through my fingers eager to know what would happen next.
Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down. I finished it in one sitting and can't wait to find out what will happen next. Masked has definitely placed itself in my top reads of 2024. This book is dark, twisted, unhinged, and leaves nothing to the imagination. I loved how descriptive Lopez was and how she didn't hold back!
