Not me trying another fae-laden book and not enjoying it as much as everyone else. I think I just want it too hard especially since I know I don’t really jive with them.

The FMC is one of the most annoying lead characters I’ve come across in a while, and the love quadrangle situation leaves a lot left to be desired.

I can’t even handle triangles for chrissakes.

But even though the worldbuilding is sort of boring in a simple but confusing kind of way, I do like the shapeshifting aspects, and I’m curious about the Sky Kingdom and its leader.

Maybe one day I’ll pick up the sequel but it won’t be with bated breath and I can’t see it happening anytime soon.
