I got Cursed last year but I haven't had the time to read but when I found out there would be a Netflix show on it, I knew I had to read it soon. This book is amazing, both physically and in terms of the actual story. I haven’t read many retellings on the Arthurian legend but I really enjoyed this one. It is darker but still manages to have positive aspects to it. There are a lot of books that I really like but books like this one are few. I got the same feeling reading this book that I got when I read The School for Good and Evil books (my favorite books of all time). Both authors talk about fairy tales that are very common and well-known and they make their own. Cursed is fast-paced and has a lot of adventure and action and there wasn’t a point where I wasn’t interested. I love the characters and appreciate that they all have made mistakes in the past which makes them more realistic. But enough about the good things, there were a few things I didn’t like that made me not rate it 5 stars. There were a lot of things happening in the last few chapters that made me not enjoy it as much. There were things that got introduced in the last 2 or 3 chapters and left me with questions and as I finished the book, there were some things that were left unanswered. Overall, I enjoyed it but there some things that put me off towards the end.
