This was a fine novel, but not at all what I was expecting, so it probably won't be memorable.

It was my #bookspin pick and my first #kidspickmybooks selection for January, so one more off the shelves!

This book was....so much. Fairie, and Arthurian legend, and werewolves, and Celtic folklore, and dragons, and...SO MUCH.

I THINK I'll read the next one, if only to see if anything that happened in this book actually winds up making a difference.

When the narrator tells you (on page one) that this story will not have a happy ending, you need to listen up. This book is DARK, and the dark stuff just keeps coming. It's also full of purple prose, so reader beware. But Mia? Oh, she's worth it, and I can't wait to jump into book two.

Just finished this one under the wire for my #kidspickmybooks selection for February. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Good, enjoyable fantasy novel that I read quickly. The main reason it didn't hit 5-star level is that it truly feels like its sole purpose is to set up whatever is going to happen next. It feels like the prologue to the story the author ACTUALLY wants to write. That being said, it was dang entertaining, and I'm excited to see where book two takes us!

ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled I think I‘m going to make this my next audiobook! Doubling up with Kindle so I can read it a little faster. I think Audible clocks it at 27 hours 😬 5y
EliNeedsMoreShelves @ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled I love fantasy novels on audio book, but they always seem SOOOO long! 😆 5y
