Dark and disturbing fantasy that grossed me out. Interesting setting, plot and characters but a little slow at times.

This is my second book in the genre and I don’t think it’s for me. So take the rest of this review with that in mind.

I found the main character a bit hard to stomach at times - she was a bit of a cartoon version of a character. 

I found the characters and plot more compelling and the writing more delicious in ‘The Hacienda’ by Isabel Canas.
