Unhinged characters and probably even more unhinged author. I wouldnt say the book is bad, its just not for me.

This is like The Cruel Prince + ACOTAR + The Selection, but milder and inferior. The MC is not badass imo (she thinks she is, but she always have to choose the stupidest option there is despite receiving tips and warning from other characters). But its enjoyable enough and easy to read.

Its very intriguing at first, but less so afterwards. Quite underwhelming revelation.
