3.5
The pacing was strange, for about 40% of the book, time only lapses for about 24ish hours; the middle was a bit of a blur in terms of time passage, and then at the end, (before the final chapter) the whole action seemed so entirely rushed and out of no where (as… not much quick action happens in the other 85% of the book?). I also felt weirded out on the fixation of breasts and nipples, honestly, felt like I should’ve started a count of how many times both words were brought up (those other reviews about how people were surprised at how the author was a woman with how she fixated on this aspect.. Yeah.)
The plot twist was a bit predictable, though I guess the last chapter ending wasn’t, necessarily. Eh. Whimsy, in a fairytale sense, I suppose, and lived up to the horror genre with depictions of gore.
**sigh, altered from a 3.75 to a 3.5 because Undine’s rant about Marlinchen’s character reminded me of why I disliked her as a MC so; she was so very naive, I want to empathize with how she was a product of what she had gone through, but at the same time, I wish I could just flat out ask her to smarten up a bit.
