never in my life have i read such a juvenile adult book... "ta-tas", "piss-fart" or "turd eggs" every two pages, are you kidding me?? the main character was NOT the interesting kind of "unlikeable/messy protagonist", thankfully the love interest was easy to like. 
the plot wasn't interesting enough to me, although i will say the bits about mythology had me hooked!! overall, not an enjoyable time but i can see the potential (some of the writing could be relatable and the romance was sweet)
