ngl I can already sense this might not be for me... the beginning is looking like Cinderella from Disney with Feyre being the "ugly" sister/cinderella and I feel like this is going to turn quickly into a Beauty & The Beast retelling, but make it fairy... tbh never liked Disney princess movies growing up... I could always sense that they were feeding kids this toxic, idealistic version of romance like it was normal...

Finally, something mildly exciting is happening. Is it worth it, though? Probably not, it’ll likely fall apart in the next chapters. But who knows, maybe I’ll be proven wrong and end up giving it three stars. For a brief moment, though, I actually saw Dune as a shallow little shell, I’d say it reads more like Katniss Everdeen stranded in a Dune setting.

I thought this was going to help me, cuz it's short and less brain consuming but this has just aggravated my reading slump from how uninterested I'm in this... 😑

🙄 I cringed too much already...
"He purred, the sound rumbling through my fingers, arms, legs and core. I wonder how that sound would feel if he were fully pressed up against me, skin-to-skin."
"He ripped his claws free from the wall, and my knees buckled as he let go."
"I cried out as his teeth clamped onto the tender spot where my neck(...)"
trying to be "sexy" but it's just awkward and over-the-top

😂 I die every time Tamlin’s described with wolf-like features and a shapeshifting beast form, yet they say he’s “just a fae.” Dude, it’s beastkin to the core, screaming from every page. I can’t wrap my head around how people find those furry-adjacent traits attractive, especially how they’re described. I’m convinced Sarah Maas lowkey slipped in some furry kink, without it being explicit on page.

I understand why some readers might enjoy this if they haven’t read widely or are reading for entertainment, but I don’t need to explain how romanticizing Stockholm syndrome is harmful, specially for younger crowds. But I’ll need to see how the Stockholm syndrome elements are handled before forming a full opinion.

is starting
I’m also going to try reading this book because I really want to start finishing the ones I already own instead of constantly buying new ones that seem more interesting. I’ve had this one for quite a while back from when I first started reading a lot more and since then, my reading tastes have changed quite a bit. It’s not as appealing to me now as it probably was back then, but I still want to give it a fair chance.
