I found it interesting how the magical and fantasy elements in this world were completely out in the open. Humans, who generally are the oppressors of magical creatures, were actually the oppressed in this book. Those with powers were inherently privileged in this world. This was a great way to build up a story with a half human as the protagonist.
I really liked Bryce and Hunt and how their relationship developed slowly as they learned to trust and respect one another. I felt like they were both extremely well developed characters with clear motivations.
There was almost too much emphasis on the world building, every little thing was described. And the first 1/3 if the book was very slow. That said, the last 1/3 of the book was fast paced and action packed!
I felt like there was too much focus on the human rebellion and not enough on the angel rebellion. The angel rebellion played more of a role in this book and it would have been great to get more of that history on Hunt.
Tropes: urban fantasy, forced proximity, enemies to lovers, age gap, slow burn, mystery

The plot was okay but every few pages there's a description that I can't ignore and I did try
And also no shut warning u guys
800 slow burn for nothingg
I wasn't even sure what was I waiting forrr no enemies to lovers they liked each other from the beginning
Also it's very shallow?
I only liked it for a bit after they killed all her friends which was nice

To think I almost DNFed this after 50 pages!!! Which is why I deduct half a star. The first few chapters are really hard to read, they’re nonsensical, lazy world building and make almost zero sense to the point where I felt compelled to put it down. Some friends convinced me it was worth the push so I started over and pushed through part 1, at which point I absolutely *devoured* the rest of the book. I didn’t guess any of the twists, I fell in love with all the characters, my heart broke and pieced itself back together and broke over and over again. Loved this. ACOTAR who?
