I was expecting something really good (and really dark) based on the reviews for this book, but 11% in and it’s just this dumb as fuck, fairytale romance. And the girl, I’ve already forgotten her name, is really immature. She just found out she has a whole other family? And her mom was an opera singer who died young? And she ran away to Moscow and got attacked? But none of that seems to matter? Just heart eyes.

“I was The Princess and the Pea. Except the pea was the twisted dejection I was almost killed and then promptly forgotten by a man who fingered me on a secret camera and sent the video to my papa. Gen-Zs wouldn’t know romance if it hit them with a bus.”
I’m sorry… what?? What is that last line? Why include it? Is it supposed to be smart? I’m annoyed with this writing. Don’t remember that from book 1.
