Really liked the beauty and the beast elements and the changes made to it

such as our beast staying a beast instead of permanently reverting back into his human form

. 

I wasn't sure how to feel at the start when the story stuck really close to the fairy tale elements with all the things Lila was required to do but I started really enjoying it when these elements were more fast and loose. 

Loved both of the main characters and how they grew to love each other. Abyssian killed me with his mistrust of Lila but it was understandable considering what he went through.
