I wanted to love this one more than I did, but I still liked it! I am not a fantasy TV show watcher (like GoT), so this one didn't really resonate with me as much as it might have for others. I am also not into cosplay or fan-fiction, so this is another reason why it didn't hit the mark for me. A lot of the cosplay/fantasy/fan-fiction references went over my head. I loved the plus size representation and Marcus' love for April, however I found it almost too good to be true-- very insta-love-y. I also found our FMC to be quite dense and judgmental, which made me dislike her for most of the book. I liked the dyslexia, familial emotional manipulation, and anxiety representation too. Overall, this book was okay and I *did* like it, just not as much as I had hoped.
