this was VERY good. the plot was absolutely amazing, and when did I not love a morally grey revolving plot? the only thing I can find is that I didnt like the characters. at all. sophie was very, very hypocrite (and yes, I know her character was supposed to), on the other hand, Agatha had something, dont ask me what is it because I dont know, that made me dislike her. I even liked sophie more than her, which was...something, for sure. another thing I don't like about this book is everything happening because of the power of love and friendship. and yes, I know this book is about fairytales, but sometimes it felt like the author didnt know how to solve an issue and bam, because of the power of love and friendship everything is fixed. and also....am I the only one who shipped sophie and agatha????? because even after they kissed, they were still calling each other friends..... 
anyway, I really liked the plot of this book. morally grey themes are definitely my thing, and I really liked how the author dealt with it. I will continue with this series, for sure!

wow, this was just so amazing and emotional i cannot help but loving it. I must admit I dropped a few tears at the end of the book. the main character was amazing and wes was everything. their chemistry was undeniable and their relationship absolutely jaw-dropping. the only reason why I dont give this book 5 stars is that something is missing for it to be unforgettable.

Amor Fingido by Andrea Smith (Andrea Herrero)

a ver, no ha sido un libro súper memorable, pero tampocoha estado mal. he echado un poco de menos un poco de diversidad en los personajes, pero el mensaje que quiere transmitir con el personaje de amanda es muy importante y esta bien llevado. la mayoría de lectores han odiado el final, pero yo lo veo necesario según el transcurso final de la historia. el tca lo tenía que sanar amanda, no nate. y pues eso, que seguiré leyendo para ver qué tal.

when I say I DEVOURED this book, I truly mean it. I read this in just one sit and I do not regret it, even if it made me tired af for my first day back to hs. The characters were so amazing and funny, the TENSION goshhh, the build-up,....I LOVED IT. The only thing is that the main character was so oblivious at the end of the book that she stressed me out! But I honestly thought that she could be perfectly me and that felt odd hahahaha. I am not much of a fan of friends-to-lovers, but this one was perfectly executed. Moreover, I really liked the message of this book and how it was focused in young adults.

meh, it was mid. The world building at the beginning was so confusing, it took me a while to get into the story and the "plot twist" got me knowing the obvious since less than half of the book. Nonetheless, as I hate leaving things unfinished, I will keep reading the series.

no estuvo mal, pero era demasiado predecible. supe lo que iba a pasar desde el principio del libro.
