A half-fae woman with no magic finds herself failing upward to her destiny, with no shortage of love interests she stops at nothing to do what she thinks is right for her family and friends.
I wasn't into the new adult story at first, especially since the whole plot gets driven forward by the FMC's "bad choices", but I finally got into it when she sets off to find the other 4 crows.
Kind of wish this had a different title that didn't try to ride the romantasy hype train.

I felt this story had some great ideas but overall had poor execution and if given a few more good edits and rework of plot points, could’ve been a successful series to grab attention. You’re introduced to about 13 characters within the first 5 chapters and yes, you do want to keep track of them. I also felt like some of the plot could have been refined further to make Fallon a stronger main character instead of a character with the plot happening to them.
It really saddens me as there feels like there’s great ideas for world building, but with a weak plot, unnecessary characters, and unnecessary filler, this book ultimately was a no go for me.
