This is a bully romance series - didn't know I hated bully romances until now. I have already bought the whole series though so I will see this through, hoping the rest of the series gets better... Felt like this was Harry Potter plagiarism written as fanfiction but instead of wizards it is fae and every other type of magical being (including pegasus). This series was so heavily recommended to me through tiktok by people who read ACOTAR and TOG, I cannot understand why. Hoping I eat my words the further into the series I get.
