I think I’ve read too many books of this genre. They’re all starting to feel the same. This was alright. The beginning was pretty good, but the last several chapters were VERY mediocre. They also said they loved each other after like a week of knowing each other, but whatever.

I think this is one of my new favorite series! I’m such a sucker for fairy tale retellings, and the entangled with fae series just does them so much justice! I think out of the three I’ve read, Maisie and Dorian are my new favorite. The battle between survival, your morals, and your heart was an amazing mixture of story. I loved that Maisie wasn’t your average princess, but so quirky it comes off cringy ‘I’m not like other girls’ vibes. I liked that both her and Dorian came from different backgrounds, and had to overcome their pasts and the roadblocks brought on by their families to be together. And I also just love an aloof but secret softy male love interest. ALSO It was interesting that this book was written entirely from Maisie’s pov, and not Dorian’s at all! Which was kind of nice, because it keeps you guessing how he’s feeling about her, warm then cold then warm again, and what sort of internal thoughts be might be having. And of course… how could anyone hate Podaxis? I love that little guy and I loved this installment of the series!

3.5 stars. There's no reason for her to love him. Like, at all. He does nothing through the entire novel and she just bam falls in love because he looks nice when sweaty?!? Podaxis is the real hero of this book.
