This story had me laughing from beginning to end. It was completely ridiculous, but fully self-aware of it, and I loved that. The mix of modern language (including a lot of cursing), absurdity, and high fae creatures was entirely too much fun. The narrator for the audio book was incredible and gave Cin such flair. 

It’s not a literary masterpiece, but I really enjoyed this. The irony laced into the story was beautifully done, even if the prose was a little underdeveloped. I was a little caught off-guard when the sweet, absurd tone shifted to graphic violence and explicit smut. The adventure itself was overly simplified and quite convenient. 

Overall though, it’s a fluffy, smutty, absurd story that I will definitely re-read!
