I know that people love this book and this series, but it wasn’t for me. A friend told me to read it, so I did, without knowing anything about it, and that was 100% my mistake. I’m not generally a fan of YA, and I don’t like a lot of sexy time in my books. To me it just felt shallow and predictable, and if I came across the phrase “lazy smile” one more time I thought I might explode. On the positive side, there was some world building with the different courts and their unique attributes, which I did appreciate.
