More of a 3.5/5
This is a tough one for me to rate and review. On the one hand I really enjoyed this. It was so much darker and deceptive than I could have imagined and I couldn't put it down. Most of the characters were cruel and conniving and it just set this apart from other Fae books I've read recently. But on the other hand there's something that I can't quite put my finger on that's just stopping me from raving about this book. Maybe it's because it took me a while to get used to the world and it was a little slow to start, so I don't feel like I was fully immersed in the story for a good chunk of the book.
Either way, it was a solid start to a series and I can see how the story will get darker and more fleshed out as the series continues.
