I will finish the série because the storyline is somewhat interesting, but I CANNOT stand Theon. His behaviour is unacceptable and as much as we love a protective main character, this is just too much, to the point that I felt uncomfortable reading some parts of the book. Let's not even talk about axel and Luka.
Even Tessa us frustrating af. There's Feyre's frustrating level and Violet frustrating level. Tessa is in the middle, frustrating af but it's somewhat understandable why. But also, no.
And I'm not sure if I've been reading so much romantasy that I'm just getting things faster than before or not, but the plot is very easy to guess and it's a bit disappointing. The only interesting thing that kept me going is to find out how everything came out.

I was excited going into this as some booktok people I follow rated this 5 stars, but this just didn’t hit for me 🤷🏻♀️
Honestly it was so depressing, the pacing felt slow, the poor FMC, there’s lack of communication, three of the male side characters are more interesting than the MMC, things felt repetitive at times.
The end started getting interesting, but this book did not need to be as long as it was. I’m curious about the next book to see what happens next, but I’m in no rush

i absolutely ATE THIS UP! i put off reading this for awhile because i didn’t think it would be as good as “Lady of Darkness,” but i was SO wrong. I haven’t felt this excited over an ending like this since crescent city 2. i LOVE a good multiversal cross over
This book wasn’t for me. There wasn’t much of a plot to be honest. The main characters fought, bickered and annoyed each other the entire book and I think that was supposed to be the plot? The FMC seems completely unaware/ignorant of the world she lives in. Her race is destined to serve another and she’s over here complaining about not having pizza and donuts. I read a few other reviews and mostly it’s hate for the MMC but I think he was written accurately. He’s a rich kid, who has been tortured and molded by his father. They own slaves and see nothing wrong with it because that is the world they live in. The story was just boring, nothing ever really happened.

I had a good time with this one! I really liked the world building and the fact that the heroine wasn't a pushover.
This book is very much character driven and that was a bit of a downside for me. I got a bit zoned out/bored at certain parts and a lot of the arguments between the fmc and mmc became a bit repetitive, without any solution or steps toward a solution. The book also felt really long. But I liked it enough to continue with book 2!

disclaimer for this book: i do not like the mmc. he is incredibly controlling, privileged, and incredibly unpleasant.
he’s got a whole dark and broody thing about him that isn’t enticing. you learn in the book that he’s got some deep trauma that he’s still working through (debatable) and it explains his tendencies/actions, but definitely isn’t an excuse. i’m definitely more intrigued by the fmc and some other characters, which i’m hoping book 2 dives into a little more.
the fmc also has some significant trauma and he tends to trigger her quite often (which he’s given every pass on it while she’s forced to endure consequences for her trauma responses).
aside from all that, this has a zodiac academy feel mixed with maybe acotar(?) not sure if that’s entirely accurate, but the story feels very similar to zodiac academy. i’m enjoying it and haivng a great time, though!
there are some trigger warnings for this book, so i’d recommend looking into those before diving into this book.
reread: yes
recommend: cautiously
spice: 3/5
