It's been a hot minute since I've read fantasy and I was immediately intrigued by the premise of the Ever King. I'll just say, L.J. Andrews did not disappoint!!

I was drawn into the world of faes. Earth and Water enemies for a long time. Erik and Livia have known each other since they were kids. They felt this strong bound towards the other and soon destiny would bring them back together!!

The Serpent and the Songbird loathed each other in the beginning. I liked watching how their feelings slowly developed. The pull they felt for each other was undeniable no matter how hard they tried to fight it.

Gah, let's not forget how Erik Bloodsinger sought revenge. He stole Livia from her people to get back at her father!

Get ready for a ride for the Ever Crew holds no prisons! I did not see this turn of events at the end!! I'll be starting book 2 as soon as I can!!

It was okay. I think the narration wasn't a great fit for me and I didn't physically read it. I may have had a different experience reading it but I'm not sure. I really didn't care for the characters very much. Solid writing but perhaps it's just not my type of book. 3.5 stars
