Born to be Bound | A Book That Made Me Want to Touch Grass and Go to Therapy!!!
Welcome, brave readers, to the literary equivalent of yelling into the void while clutching a paperback and crying over fictional trauma!
This is my book blog which means it's part emotional breakdown, part aggressive opinions, and entirely too many snacks consumed while screaming “WHY WOULD YOU WRITE THAT?” at authors who can't hear me. I don’t claim to be professional, but I do claim to be chronically over-invested. So grab your beverage of choice, prepare for spoilers (NOT REALLY), and let’s dive into whatever book just ruined my life this week.

Things That Made My Brain Go “WHEEEEE!”
He meets all her emotional, physical, and spiritual needs like some deranged wish-granting goblin who never even asked what she wanted.

𧨠QUOTES THAT SLAPPED ME ACROSS THE FACE:
No quotes slapped me across the face lol π
What my Braincell Has Spoken!
He body-snatches Claire like she's a DoorDash order he didn’t even tip for, force-bonding the poor Omega girl like a clingy psychopath with a God complex and zero chill. We're talking: "You're mine now, forever, whether you like it or not, and also I'm gonna make you feel things you hate but also weirdly want, sorry not sorry."
The man is a walking red flag with a six-pack. Violence? Check. Manipulation? Double check. Emotional availability? LOL.
And Claire—bless her emotionally exhausted heart—spends half the book hating him like a girlboss with Stockholm Syndrome and the other half making you want to reach into the pages and yeet her into therapy. By the end I was like, “Girl, I GET it…but also shut up or I swear I will throw hands through the Kindle.”
π¨ SPOILER ALERT π¨ Okay listen—some folks are out here calling that scene “cheating” and to that I say: girl, be serious. If that’s cheating, then I need a 72-hour psychiatric hold because I saw zero infidelity and 100% delicious emotional damage. Like, if your therapist isn't booked weekly just from reading this, are you even living??
Gave it 4 stars. Unholy, toxic fun
⚠️π¨ WARNING: This book is basically a trauma piΓ±ata. If your brain is held together with emotional duct tape, turn back now. Major trigger bombs in there. Proceed only if your coping mechanisms are wearing combat boots. π§π§ π₯
