This book was abysmally slow. Poppy is annoying and stupid. The love interest (I have forgotten hs name) was unlikeable. Their power dynamic was extremely toxic. It had these weird world building paragraphs that were huge info dumps in between one word dialogue. Grammatical errors everywhere and horribly repetitive dialogue. Saw the twist from a mile a way. Book picks up last 50 pages but it isn't worth it. 

The two people of color in the book are both in servant type roles. One is named TAWNY. Big yikes.

I honestly don't know why this book is so hyped. It was one of the worst books I've ever read.
