![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() My first disappointment was in learning that the setting was modern-day New York, and the first half of the book straddled the line between contemporary and urban fantasy, at best. Marketing led me to believe that this was going to be the typical high fantasy world we see in fairytales. I wanted that uncaring, 'here's your blood and guts and your fucked-up happy ending' fairy-tale voice." Please remember that these are just my opinions! You are more than welcome to disagree or tell me your thoughts, but please do so respectfully. It was being marketed as a twisted fairytale, and those are my aesthetic for sure - the spookier and darker, the better - but this fell short in so many ways. It's time for another unpopular opinion review! This book was literally the single biggest reading disappointment of the year for me. ![]()
