⭐️ Book Ratings are purely subjective based on my level of enjoyment. May vary depending on route.
🌶️ Spice Ratings are not based on whether the intimate scenes are good or bad, but on the frequency and level of explicitness of those intimate scenes. May vary based on choices.
**Disclaimer: Some books I read some time ago. There may be some scenes that I’ve forgotten that would impact the rating score.
