The pacing was so slow and we rehashed the same inter monologue the entire 375 pages

cluttered_shelf's review against another edition

Racist stereotypes (best friend), rushed writing, unrealistic (it’s fantasy but how can he be a king and have all this free time, also how is she a PI but so stupid), no description of any character except the love interest and a random man were given. Rape had previously been hinted at and then was later attempted and rape becomes part of the plot twist/ becomes kind of central to the plot. Complete tone shift, grammatical errors, and body horror occurs.
