This book was enjoyable but maybe too much hype and so I expected fantastic. Outside of my usual genre, this fantasy, world building almost retelling of beauty and the beast was interesting to a point, but the certain points it almost seemed as if we were in a hurry to get the book over with, and lacked depth.
I’ve heard the 2nd book is better, so I am excited to start that!
