panI wanted to like this. It draws extensively & specifically from (mostly) Celtic folklore about the fae. I forgive a lot with a 1st book in a fantasy series because we have to build out a whole world but my issue was:
I was taken out of the plot so many times by a characters behavior:
-Why is Toby kissing this guy? Why do we like him?
-why is this character mad at Toby?
-Why doesn‘t Toby just tell the truth?
Etc
Also ..not what a hope chest is.

5feet.of.fury @IMASLOWREADER thanks! It was an Irish Americano ☕️ and it was delish! 😋 4d
HeyT Omg I read this and was not a fan way back near when it first came out and I've always been like why was this so popular? I also couldn't figure out why I hated it so much when I've loved most of her other series/stuff. Ngl I feel kind of validated right now lol. (edited) 3d
5feet.of.fury @HeyT I‘ve been a big fan of her for a while too! (primarily the Mira Grant stuff) I was hoping to like it since there‘s so many (book 19 coming out this year!) & I like urban fantasy, but I completely didn‘t get the appeal of Toby or her circumstances. Idk. haha glad I could help 3d
