I'm a well read grad student who's bluntly honest about all things, although I try to be most honest about myself.
And it actually makes sense in the kind of twisted way that I expected would be the explanation for this. I actually quite enjoyed this, especially Illyria trying to seduce Connor.
I love her just taking charge of the situation and saying what she wants and letting him know when she wants it. It was nice to see.
Overall, this was far more enjoyable than most of the other Angel books I've read, but I'm not ashamed to admit I'm on a little bit of an Angel burnout.
