⭐⭐⭐⭐
This book has a four star rating from
me (though would more accurately be 3.5) not because it’s a great book by
general standards, but because I really enjoyed it. I think this book falls
into the category of a guilty pleasure read and I’m perfectly happy with that.
In parts, this book felt like a
drag. It’s over 600 pages long and some of those pages went quickly, whilst
others went very, very slowly. Because around two thirds of this book is Poppy’s
thoughts, it means that a lot of the text feels a bit like filler and also that
there are an insane number of ellipses. I don’t know why ellipses are really annoying
me at the moment but when I see them in a place where a comma or full stop would
suit, how unnecessary they are grinds my gears.
Having said that, despite not
enjoying some aspects of the book, the forbidden romance aspect, badass heroine
and, fantasy elements brought this book together to be something I looked
forward to reading and hopefully something I’ll continue to enjoy in the next
book.
