This was so fun! Uses tropes and elements from many different stories, but sometimes you just need an escape / brain candy book and I immediately wanted to read the rest of the series after finishing this one. I can’t wait to see what happens next!!

The only reason I didn't give this amazing book 5 stars is because it had several scenes of detailed animal death. Most of them were the same scene over & over. Unnecessary.

callmetheyo's review against another edition

Wasn't really into the  romance.  I thought it would be subtle, but its kinda graphic in some parts.  Also the plot is pretty basic and predictable.  I already knew what was going to happen within the first 2ish chapters and didn't really want to stick around to see if I was right.
