3.82 AVERAGE


I will have to come back to write my thoughts because I stayed up way too late finishing this

Mdr je crois que le problème de ce livre c'est la FMC, elle est insupportable

J'espère qu'elle va se reveiller dans la suite, ce n'est pas agreable de lire le pov de quelqu'un de manipulable et qui réagit comme une gamine.

Tout les pov etaient très bien sauf ceux de Orlaith.
Le livre est de nouveau long au démarrage et il y a vraiment de l'action à la fin.
Pas vraiment de gros plot twist, ça reste assez plat, mis à part le dernier chapitre

Les loves interest bien toxiques là ...
Jpp so cringe que Rhordyn il l'a élevé, OK les age gap en fantasy c'est différent, mais là le mec il l'a recueillie quand elle avait 2 ans supplement syndrome de Stockholm.

Never my problem. Always my tragic ever after.

We’re a disaster in slow motion.

I love this series! Book 1 was a 5 star read while this one was a 4.5 star read. I love the 2nd book but just not as much as the first one. We she the FMC unravel and try to find out who she is outside in a new kingdom. She struggles a lot but she is young and that is part of the journey. 

Expect:
- forced proximity
- 2 possessive MMCs! 
- Stalking
- tension
- secrets 
- miscommunication 
- politics 
- Fae and fae adjacent 
- monsters 
- hidden powers 

This is a dark!!!! Romance so read your trigger warnings.

DID NOT FINISH

DNF 64% The FMC is an idiot, and I can't finish. Really, she is so dumb. I was interested in the plot, but I can't deal with her never thinking anything through. Writing's good, but full of plotholes and lacking in world building. The cat and mouse game got really repetitive and boring in the middle. And the plot barely progressed (I jumped to the ending). Oh, and ALL 3 RELATIONSHIPS IS INSTALOVE

Okay so I read the first book in the first week of May and wasn’t a big fan but randomly decided to pick up book 2 bc I was curious about how the story progressed and OH MY GOD book 2 was amazing I’m starting book 3 immediately

To Snap a Silver Stem - 4.5/5⭐️
“I’d strike the fucking world down for you.”

I’ll be keeping this short and spoiler-free. I don’t know if I just read one of the greatest books ever or one of the most heartbreaking - or maybe it’s both?! Regardless, I love Orlaith and I’m so fucking proud of her. If you’re also a dark and twisty girlie who thrives on a story with maximum emotional damage so you can ✨feel something✨ then this series is for you, honey!
