Were there plot holes? Yes. Were parts of it a little too close to ACOTAR? Yes. Was the MMC’s name really stupid? Yes.

But it was also one of the greatest things I’ve read all year. It’s everything ACOTAR tried to be but wasn’t. Spicy, angsty, daaaaaark and brooding. Fast paced and twisty. I loved every second of it. Bravo.
