Okay, I have finally jumped onto the ACOTAR bandwagon. I am a big lover of fantasy and romantasy so of course I’m liking this storyline. I’m also really loving some of these characters, so I can’t wait to see what happens next.

echolliot's review against another edition

Just too painful to keep going - cliche, trite, and honestly just really badly written. I couldn't plough through with this garbage Beauty and the Beast reimagining. And the horrible, abusive "romance" stuff made me want to throw my phone away. Don't bother.

Bad summaries: 

500+ y/o guy falls for a 19 year old with an educational disability who doesnt know what to do with her life and then introduces her to royalty hell and forces her to save him from his eternal doom at the hands of a sadistic evil woman who kills for fun 🤷🏽‍♂️

octopus18's review against another edition

DNF. Pushed through until halfway but then I gave up. I didn't get the plot, MC was boring, writing style was bad. Also not a fan of the power relationship/age gap.
