The only reason I didn't give this amazing book 5 stars is because it had several scenes of detailed animal death. Most of them were the same scene over & over. Unnecessary.

callmetheyo's review

Wasn't really into the  romance.  I thought it would be subtle, but its kinda graphic in some parts.  Also the plot is pretty basic and predictable.  I already knew what was going to happen within the first 2ish chapters and didn't really want to stick around to see if I was right.

This book had me feeling all the emotions. From sadness, to anger, to more sadness and to hopefulness, I didn’t want this book to end but at the same time, I needed to know what happened. I understand the hype. This was my first adult fantasy book and it did not disappoint!!

I only liked the middle of the book and some chapters by the end, the rest is too slow pace, very weak plot, and some moments I felt bad reading it
