For the broken, you can find a place.

I’m twenty-six years old, and I want to die.

So when I wake up at the hospital with my brother weeping over me, I know my life is about to change. What I didn’t expect was to get a nurse with cruel eyes and a morbid sense of humor that surpasses my own.

I’m even more surprised when I arrive at Harlow Sanctum and realize that my brother selected an unorthodox rehabilitation center that rooms people based on their treatment plan. And my roommate is none other than the man with cruel eyes I met the day prior.

I crave death—he craves life.

Can two people like us cure each other?

This was quite the ride, with mental health, a mystery, and finding love. I was gripped from the very beginning and the twist and turns and my sure hope for the characters just kept me turning the pages. Very well done Moronova, very well done.

This is a messy love story. It's dark, sorrowful, and follows two broken souls drawn into each others heart.

Its epic conclusion broke my heart then mended it back together in its epilogue.

This book ruined me, and then put me back together again.

Wynn — I LOVED her. Not only did she deserve everything and then some, but her ability to find ways of caring when they may not be conventional, was so endearing. She was so easy to understand and feel for.

Liam? Swoon. His sassy bits and pieces and how he was with Wynn has my heart in a headlock.
He sure as heck deserved better too. The twist of Crosby? Broke my damn heart.

This books plot is so clever and I love this authors way of telling a story while tying it in with other genres so loosely you could miss it with a blink. This book is darker and as a result, check your triggers before you start reading.

This was so good.
I don't think that people realize how important mental health is and even just the support from families which I feel like this book supported.
The love story and the quotes that just stayed with me from this were amazing.
There were parts of this that I didn't love like the way (if you know you know) that one character dies. I would have liked something different, a different ending, a HEA, a triple love, a baby by him or something... I don't know, but something different.

Thank you to the publisher for allowing me an advanced readers copy of this to enjoy. I loved it and absolutely bought it too.

I absolutely loved my first read by this author and would happily read KM Monronova again. The story is dark. The story is depressing. This story is hope. Hope for people who live in the darkness with the belief that they are not worthy. Not worthy of love. Not worthy of respect. Not worthy of life. Wynn doesn't feel worthy. When she meets others at Harlow Sanctum (a respected mental institution) that have the same feelings, it is a mystery how anyone can get any better. There is a love story between several patients but it isn't a why choose type of story. These people complete each other in ways they never found on the "outside". There is an element of surprise and an element of suspense in the story that I found completely irresistible and was the hook that brought me to a 5 star as it wasn't quite what I expected. The story ended in the only way it could and I truly loved it. Indeed, you should check your triggers if you have them as it does have issues of suicidal ideation and self-harm.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an honest review in exchange for an advanced copy.

This one is dark, proceed with caution due to all of the triggers and know it will not be for everyone. I was hooked though - it's dark but quick and I could not put it down.

The Fabric of Our Souls had an intriguing premise, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite deliver for me. While the world-building had potential, it often felt underdeveloped, leaving me confused about the story's rules and settings. The characters, although relatable, lacked depth and didn’t evoke the emotional connection I was hoping for. The pacing dragged in parts, making it hard to stay engaged, and some plot points felt forced or cliché. There were glimpses of brilliance in Moronova's writing, but overall, the execution fell flat. It’s a book that had promise but ultimately didn’t meet my expectations.

This was an experience. It was an interesting twist to a dark romance that was emotional but very different. I would love to see what the author continues to put out in the future. If someone wants a darker quirkier romance give this a try.

I made it a chapter before it was too close to an assault that I had in a similar place and I couldn’t read it. What I read seemed well designed for a young reader who enjoys dark, unhealthy romance.

This was terrible. The biggest disappointment. The beginning had a little bit of an interesting start and I really hoped it would play out well. But it didn’t. Absolutely hated the last 80% and I’ll never trust another hyped up book again.

This is probably one of the best books I've ever read. The emotion this book evokes is so intense I can't say enough about it. The characters are beautifully damaged. The connection the 3 mains share is nothing short of beautiful. The writing style is easy and engaging. The story hooks you immediately immersing you in its depths and barely allowing you to survive by the end because that's how I felt....barely hanging on. I finished this book a little while ago but honestly didn't know how to express the feelings it brought forth, words failed me. They still do.
Wynn and Liam perfectly balance each other, one wants to live, the other wants to die and Lanston is the missing piece to complete them both. The mental health representation is so real, too real, it definitely leaves its mark on the reader. I finished this book emotionally damaged but imperfectly whole. Can't recommend it enough but check your triggers and get that kleenex box within reaching distance.

I really enjoyed this book it take me a little while to really hold my interest but once it did it was really good. I really enjoyed the plot of the story, and the characters it is a dark romance so take that into consideration before reading and read your triggers. Overall I enjoyed

Initially in the beginning of this book, I wasn’t sure I was going to like it. And while it took be a little longer to get into it. I couldn’t put it down in the end. If you’re on the fence and would like to try a dark romance book, this would be perfect to dip your toes in. The story follows Wynn and Liam, both their journey to healing. I really enjoyed Liam story. The side characters were enjoyable. Jericho tearing up got to me, especially with how the book ended. This book is heavy on mental health, so please check your triggers.

For starters, this was an out of my comfort zone read and I delved into this very unsure if I would even enjoy it. That said, I absolutely loved this one and found myself so emotionally invested that I was in tears by the end. This was dark, but meaningfully deep with a unique plot. The characters were so interesting, and filled with such depth that I couldn't help but to love them. The mystery part of this is what originally piqued my interest, but the dark romance side is what somehow really grabbed hold of me. The topics involved may be triggering to some, but were delivered not just beautifully, but meaningfully, leaving me thinking about this long after the last page was turned. This was a great read that I can't find any reason to rate it anything other than perfect. Five Stars.

Thank you to Netgalley and Grand Central Publishing for this ARC.

I liked. I enjoyed. I read in one sitting. Memorable? No.
While, I found some flaws that I didn’t like in the story, it was definitely captivating and it kept my attention until the very last page.
I can’t tell you if this was meant to be as like a bully romance, suspense, romance, I thought at one point maybe it was a paranormal romance, a slasher romance? I’m not sure what it was supposed to be.

There was really no character relationship buildup. It was very much Insta love and the “alternative rehab facility”, well, I had to keep reminding myself It was just fiction because I think if it was based on any real rehab facility, everyone would’ve died at the lack of structure and care for these patients that desperately needed mental health care. I wish the representation was a bit better..

However, I really fell in love with these characters. I think that anyone can resonate with some of the trauma and/or that some of these characters have gone through. You have one character that doesn’t want to live - that doesn’t want to feel.. who falls in love with someone who is desperate to constantly feel alive.
These characters meet each other through a rehab facility (if you wanna call it that).. and end up falling in love with each other. They are the cure to each other’s heartache and it was beautiful.

I found the prose poetic and writing to be wonderfully lyrical many times during the storyline. This author is clearly talented as fuck and while it was way too fast-paced and lacked detail and buildup for my taste, it is very clear that this author is a fantastic writer.

"I saw a young woman. A confused little flower trying to bloom in the daylight when you were always meant to thrive beneath the stars, unlike those around you. You've wilted enough for the world. Don't you think?"

"It's time to let go of the things that hurt."

The happily ever after is a bit wishy-washy. It is not a clean happily ever after. Two out of the three main characters get an HEA. The ending was rushed. It was obvious on what was going to happen so I really had no emotional reaction as some people had. But well played author. Well played. I will definitely be looking into this authors backlist.

“The fabric of our souls is thin and worn. We must be gentle and love tirelessly."

This book took me on a full spectrum of my emotional capacity! I just can’t explain the way this story builds and unfolds. I thought I knew where things were going more than once but I was wrong multiple times.

Dark, beautiful, and heart wrenching!

You've been warned!

My goodness, this was a wild ride! I had no idea what was going to happen.

Wynn is 26 years old and wants to die. Her brother takes her to a hospital that is a place to get better. But it's also a place that's going to change her life.

I like that this hospital is so different from any rehabilitation center I've ever read about. Which was a nice change. This place had more freedom. The ones that I have read before have had the facility be... a prison.

Wynn meets Liam (it's wild), and he's the one who's going to change her view of life. Liam himself has some baggage he's been carrying for years. As the story unfolds, I had no idea what was going to come next, and I loved that.

There's a mystery here, too. The facility was hiding some secrets that Wynn and Liam fall into.

You won't see what's coming!

“Please stay here in the dim light with me. Your e my last hope-my cure.”

Such a beautiful yet tragic soul crushing story of life and death and the sad in between.
When all you want is to die to end the pain and all he needs is pain to feel alive. Can you find the happy medium together?!

The Fabric of Our Souls by K. M. Moronova is a dark yet beautiful story!
Moronova pulled at all my emotions and kept me intrigued throughout.
It’s beautiful, poetic, descriptive, raw and real, making you love and feel for the characters deeply.
The mental health representation throughout this entire book was wonderful. It broke my heart multiple times to hear what these characters have gone through.
This book is dark and touches on mental illness and love!

It’s safe to say I have been a little obsessed with heavy reads recently. Emotionally heavy added to dark romance and count me in. This one met both of those qualifications for me. Not only are Wynn and Liam two broken individuals living in a rehab facility, but of course they are roommates who have the hots for each other. Found family made out of desperation to save each other. Not only from themselves but from a murder lurking in the shadows. The element of a mystery in a dark romance is so needed for me and I enjoyed this one for sure.
