I'm not a big fae reader, but this was recc'd by those I trusted and I wasn't let down. There wasn't a lot of weird language around gender and sexuality like I have heard happens in other fae-centric books--though at this point I am wondering if that is just straight books that have that unfortunate quality--and even though there were some high and mighty fae, things were pretty forward-facing for the most part in this book.

But yes, the story was good! I liked the characters. No one was perfect, everyone seemed rather interesting and flawed in their own ways, except for maybe the bad guys who were a little bit flat. I thought the magical world was pretty interesting and learning about magic and how it worked is fun too, especially the few bombs dropped there at the end of the book. It'll be fun to see how things go in the last book. Excited to read the conclusion in May!
