I didn't plan on finishing it today but I can't stop.

There are so many unlikable characters, like the kid, Eva and her mother

I don’t like that the plot is moved ahead by the lies and manipulations of a child (who’s not realistic as a 10 years old at all) and everyone goes along with it. A kid doing whatever she wants behind her mother’s back and manipulating and guilting others into helping her is not a good thing, they shouldn’t enable her

I hope my enjoyment will grow but for now I’m not liking it much because
1 are those adults really following the childish plan of a kid?
2 I’m not that into it.
3 I dislike Caroline and hate Allie’s mother too much.
4 wrong mood, I started it without a real desire to do so

The Crimson Court... what a pit of backstabbing, soulless vipers; might be better to kill all of the Mother's courtiers, there would be still plenty of fae left who want to live normal lives and are nice and have always been overlooked.
I'm glad Thysandra sees them and wants to back them

‘You do realise that the truth will come out sooner or later, don’t you?’
Sooner would be bad.
Later … she could survive later.
‘All I know is that it shouldn’t come out now. ‘If it spreads by the time we have trade figured out – well, this is the bloody Crimson Court, yes? As long as there’s food and wine, does anyone really care about their fellow fae enough to make a fuss?’

Spot on

Poor Naxi, she just wants to help

’I’m trying to stop hating you. And to explain why it’s taking somewhat of an effort, as rational or irrational as it may be.‘
Thysandra swallowed. ‘Well, you did—’
‘I was born, Thys.’ She’d never heard anything so close to despair in his voice. ‘I promise you I didn’t ask for her to kick you into the dirt the next day.’

I don't envy Thysandra the nightmare that is the Crimson Court

P. S. Love Naxi

Only a few hours in the Crimson Court and Naxi already murdered at lest 40 people 🤣🤣 she sure works fast

I’m so glad it starts with the immediate after, I was dying for the reactions to Em’s decisions, and nothing makes me happier than seeing my favorite characters Emelin and Creon pop-up here and there

My soul had been marked by a litany of shames. I’d carry them forever, and I’d likely carry more, too—I knew that. But Asar, I knew certain as the nightfall, would never be one of them.

"You wrote this?”
“Wrote is a strong word. I just…” I felt his muscles shift as he shrugged.
“I just played the notes that sounded like you.”
He spoke the words so softly, with such tender vulnerability. Like a confession to a priest.
So kind it hurt.
I murmured, “It’s beautiful.”
And he whispered, “Yes.”

P.S. Mische story is breaking my heart

P.S.S. If anything happens to Luce I'm throwing hands

Holy s***... I did not expect this 😯​

“Asar, do you actually care what I think of you?”
He turned back to his work and didn’t answer.
A slow grin spread over my face. “You do”
“Absolutely not” he muttered. “Arrogant of you. Get over here Dawndrinker. Help me with this”
I dropped the subject, though I intensely wanted to tease him about it. Somehow, it didn’t seem right to. The victory felt fragile and precious, and, at the same time, deadly sharp

There was no mystical Turned connection that could make me feel Asar’s soul more deeply than I did in this moment.
Asar, I now understood, was like me. He too was a healer. He had devoted himself to fixing the broken things that no one else saw.
---
"Perhaps that’s why you would be so perfect for each other. A girl who can only love broken things, and a boy so broken he can only love what he cannot have”

“And did they protect the peace?”
“They avoided war”
“You say that because hellfire didn’t rain down from the skies. But there are many ways to wage a war. I know that better than most. I suspect the vampires your kind dismembered for their holy offerings knew it, too”

(the Gods,their cults and the indoctrination that comes with them and Mische went through growing up are messed up,disturbing and just wrong)

No idea how to rate it

They are cute but I don’t really feel… the spark maybe? The reason why for a great love that will last? Not sure, it’s a nice story, I’m eating it up, but there is something missing

The same backward as forward will be heartbreaking

💜

This is so cute

Still in my contemporary romance season

I don't know if I will be able to give it 3 stars
