I know Fallon is meant to be very naive and struggling to grasp the new normal of the world, but it took her so long to realize some things that it drive me nuts. I also was pissed that Lore just never corrected her. But when they did get together and the story really picked up, it was awesome.

I almost DNF'd this book a lot sooner. I put it down for awhile before giving it another shot in hopes.

And I had so much hope for

Fallon to put Lore in his place for his controlling, possessive ways. I kept hoping until the public bath scene where he basically said he can touch her w/o consent as they're mates. Like nope. People in relationships can still say no. They have their own autonomy.

. The world building is neat but because of the above I just can't.
