I had to start this one twice, because it was sooo terribly slow. The story didn’t seem to start and the plot went everywhere. I stared it again because I did like the character designs. I was about to DNF this one, but I do ended up liking it. SJM isn’t known for being the best writer, and this one definitely had some plotholes/a bad plot that was all over the place, but like most of her books it was an enjoyable brainless read so I did end up liking this!

Hands down the best SJM book I’ve read so far. Her writing has improved ten fold in comparison to ACOTAR. 

Bryce being super against an “alpha” male personality is handled in a way that’s really cliché. Annoying but whatever. 
I also feel that hunts actions in a certain part of the book don’t make sense? We get a lot of his internal dialogue and really get to know him as a character outside of his relationship with Bryce. So some of the actions that took place-while a cool plot twist, doesn’t actually make sense when you really look at the text.  I wish SJM was able to build tension with our characters in a different way while still maintaining that plot twist.
