It‘s a nice story but most of the time I did not have a clue what the heck was going on. There were too many twists and lies and mysteries, I just couldn‘t keep up.

It's so-so for me. Honestly, it felt like reading a child fairytale book with adult relationship inside or reading a very long wattpad story. It's entertaining, but just that. I'm a bit disappointed on how the conflict climax executed. But it is a good book. If not, I wouldn't bother reading it 'till the end. I love the plot and the concept. It's such a refreshing concept between the viral faeries concepts. I know my childhood would love and go crazy for this. Too bad I read it as an adult. I will read the sequels.

I loved the beginning of this book. However, I do not understand what happened near the end. There was so much potential, and I considered this at least a 4-star book until the final 2 days of the caraval and the day after it. After that, the book took a nose dive. It tried too hard to have an interesting twist by adding too many nonsensical twists. Like, an unnecessary amount of twist done not great. I really wanted to like this book by the end, but I just can't.
