Maybe it's because I read ACOTAR and Crescent City first but I found the pacing to be annoying. It just moves so slow compared to Crown of Midnight. I'm happy I finally finished it.

The concept of this novel is actually really cool. You have interactive content that immerses you in the story which I think is absolutely brilliant. 

What's sad though is despite said brilliance, the story falls flat and the story is WAY too long for the ending that you get. My brain hurts, and I'm not even sure what happened. So yeah, do what you will with this information.

I'm all about 2nd chance romance or even a pregnancy trope but the

pee scene

was completely unnecessary.
