This book is so hard for me to review…
Did it have every single one of my favorite fantasy tropes/plot points?
Yes, it did. Forced/Political Marraige, wicked stepmother, lady boss needs to save the human realm, Alanna-esque training while disguised, midwifery, fated mates, animal sidekick, goddess blessed, learning magic, ‘who did this to you?’, fall for the fae baddy, enemies to lovers (maybe), and more I can’t think of right now
Was having every one of my favorite fantasy tropes/plot points trying to do to much?
Yes, most definitely - at points I didn’t know what I was reading. Was this political drama? School/ training story? Chosen one needs to Save the world?
Did I stay up until 3am reading it?
I can neither confirm nor deny this because people I know see these reviews and I swore to them I was not tired this morning, I just needed coffee, and it had nothing to do with reading. (read: Could not put it down)
Did I download the next book as soon as I finished this one?
Yes, I did - must find out what happens next
Would I say the book was ‘good’?
I legitimately do not know, but I did enjoy it.
