"It was the urge that a dog had to nose the same old beehive, forgetting the fact that it had been stung before."
I'm not 100% sure I get all the hype. I pushed through and finished it - mainly because I was in that "need to know" mindset but didn't really enjoy this one. It was uncomfortable, nauseating, and...dense. But maybe that's the magic of it for some people? I am a dark academia girl through and through but this one wasn't my cup of Fairy-King-tea sadly, even as much as I hoped it would be.☕
