I absolutely loved this. The relationship between Ben and Hazel is realistic, tender, and complex. The descriptions of the monsters, fae, and of the fae world are exactly my cup of tea. I love the ending and that
horned boy Severin gets with Ben. I wish we saw them a little more but I also like that Hazel ends up with changeling Jack.
