When I tell you I was so hyped for this god damn book, twelve dancing princesses retelling??? With spooky murder mystery elements??? I just HAD to read it!

I struggled so much to figure out what to rate this oh my god??? The very beginning was amazing and I was so excited to see what’d happen. About half way though, I was kinda losing my will to live as it felt just so romance heavy and just…boring for a bit? Plus the horror elements just weren’t quite captivating me (which low-key stayed for most of the book) I was so sure I’d rate it a solid 3*…BUT THEN THAT FINAL 1/3??? WHAT THE F*CK???

I genuinely haven’t read a book with that many twists and turns nearing the end as this one I genuinely couldn’t put it down and had to binge the entire last 100 pages all in one go…I’m sat here just omg??? Every time I thought I had it figured out I was so thrown!

I’m giving it 3.5* purely for the thrill I just experienced in that last 100 pages.
