Chloe Allan's Reviews > The World Within

I received an eARC from the author in exchange for an honest and unbiased opinion.

I have never read a book so spicy and I knew going in what to expect from the summary, the author and other reviews. Yet I took the risk because I loved the last book I read from Dani and I know that they are a tremendous talent. I actually absolutely adored the sex scenes and the relationship and gosh just so many of the little details. I loved Lila so so much and I think a lot of it comes down to the fact that I am a trans woman myself.

This book is racey, both in sex scenes and in pacing. I absolutely flew through it even though I only intended to read a chapter or two at first. It was totally unputdownable and moreish. You just have to know what happens next between Lila and Avisse and read on to reach their next steamy scene. What started as an experiment to see how I would go turned into a really great time. I'm certainly going to read all of Dani's books now to see what else they have to offer. They've pulled of non-binary and now trans characters with such skill.

The World Within can be read as a standalone - which is how I read it - or it can be read in conjunction with the other Weirdwater Confluence books - which I'll read next. There are some details which don't come through as well without explanation, but everything makes sense in time. I am very excited to get the backstory of this wonderful world.

There are so many superlatives that I could throw around, but it all boils down to one: excellent! There was literally nothing that I didn't like, from the beatiful author-created cover to the words themselves. Dani Finn is an author who deserves more attention and I'm going to do my part and I highly recommend that you do the same.

The World Within is a trans sapphic steamy romance with so much hope and love. It makes me so hopeful for my own journey of being accepted and loved as who I am. I want so much more of this exact thing. If you have any similar reccomendations let me know!
