Ok that was a fun read. Took me 13 years to actually get through it because the chapters were so FRIGGIN LONG, but it was a super duper fun read nonetheless.
Saeris was a pretty cool FMC. Her power was quite unique and really added to the plot. (After reading the book “the Alchemist” I felt like a smarty pants “oh yes, alchemy, I’m aware of what that is!” 🧐) I really enjoyed Saeris’ overall scrappiness and she was pretty badass for most of the book. I liked her character growth a lot too. Even though, I felt she was a little too easily swayed by Fisher in the beginning (I honestly can’t blame her, though).
Speak of the devil, I went through waves of liking and disliking Kingfisher cause he was quite a bitch in the beginning, but in the end, that man made his way into my good books. He’s one spicy lil (7ft tall) fella and I understand why he did what he did.
Now for the actual star of the show, Carrion Swift. The man that you are. The comedic relief and the man-whore of the century coming in with the hot goss. Masterful. Loved him. He was the absolute best. King.
Now plot-wise, something that surprised me in this story, was that this wasn’t just a book about FAE, but it also has VAMPIRES?!?! My Twilight girlie heart LIT UP with excitement when I read that part, although these bitches are far less hot (BOOOOOOOO!!!!!).
Anyhoo, I have to admit, Quicksilver did live up to the book tok hype. I had so much fun reading it.
(Callie, just please make shorter chapters for the next one, I beg you.)
(I’ll still read it either way)

The characters are so well developed, I just want to learn more about them. Saeris, Fisher, Ren and even Carrion won me over! The ending was a real surprise- i cannot wait for book 2!

3.5/5🌶
Kingfisher has officially breached the ranks of my top 5 shadow daddies. The way he would burn the world for her, or give her the match if she wanted to do it herself is wonderful.
This book has it all:
Plot & Action ✅️
Romance / Spice / Banter ✅️
Humor in the form of great characters ✅️
The plot twists that kept coming the last 100 pages had me holding onto my chair. The enemies to Lovers trope is written well, but once it sparks, it completely ignites from 0-100. I love the world in this and how Callie I produces other characters of lore, too.
Overall, great read! Idk why I waited so long to read it! Can't wait for book 2!
