I found a good chunk of the book somewhat dull but the ending really made up for it

The plot.... emaculate. The romance...... enticing. These things really make this book a five for me. Just like in the second book they really make up for some of the writing that can start to pull me from the story. Sometimes some of the ways characters choose to say certain things seems off for the setting of the book. And I understand...... she has questions but why is it brought up AND responded to every 2 minutes. Occasionally is funny but after a while it can be too much.

This would be camp if it wasn't sincere. 

I feel like there was so much potential for a good story and it was completely wasted. 
I enjoyed the basis of the plot and the conflicts I felt made sense to the story line, but good lord, the dialogue is some of the worst I've ever read. Genuinely  Ive read ao3 fanfics written better than this. Everytime I started to think the story was getting good or it was redeeming itself, the dialogue ruined it. 

Idk how Casteel puts up with Poppy but honestly he is just as insufferable. All the characters personalities are flat, Poppy is "nOt liKe oThEr GiRls", a huge pick-me, and everyone just eats it up??

It took me until a few chapters into this book that there are two guys "Malec/k", I thought she was misspelling the name the entire series. Also both opposing queens names are too similar and it was confusing. These are all side characters that are only talked about we don't really meet them throughout the story so I felt that made it more confusing. 

The ending was a cop out, imo. once the twist happened in chapter 46, I just skipped ahead to the last chapter and read from there. 

I was really hoping that since they were married now, there would be some good smutty scenes but there was like 3? 4? and they were mid at best. 

Tbh, I think I'm avoiding this author from now on.

This book has an overwhelming amount of exposition! Way too much. The action scenes and sex scenes were very good, and I adored the little break in the middle to take a fluffy little stroll around Evaemon. But it felt like most it was characters explaining stuff to Poppy.

This has been my favorite read of this series so far. Once again there were some parts that dragged out and I had to trudge through to finish, but the things that come to light and discoveries that are made had me sitting on the edge of my seat excited to read and learn more. Poppy is still a freaking badass. Casteel and Kieran are just 😍 I do wonder each book just how much more Poppy is going to have to deal with. Poor girl needs a break 🥺🤣 I am following an alternative reading and am jumping to Flesh and Fire book 1 and am excited to dive back in!
