I love fantasy, and I love me a good high fantasy with romance. But this book...I can't get into. Let me explain:
I think the author had some great ideas, but right from the get go, I could tell she was giving me far too much information. It was when her mother tried to save her and immediately told her she wasn't hers. It was then I knew this was going to be a difficult read. Nothing came as a surprise when she knew she was hybrid, or the fact that the character didn't even act surprised she was. I mean...I NEED inner conflict to care about the character. Or how she went through difficult trials only to come out unscathed emotionally...I dunno. It just didn't sit well with me.
To those who enjoyed it, I'm happy for you! But this fantasy read wasn't for me.
