I found the book incredibly awkward in its pacing, its dialogue, the interactions between the characters. The concept had potential, I liked the idea of different kinds of Fae and the idea of Light, but the execution of the story itself seemed to fall short for me. By the end, there were so many different twists being revealed, one right on top of the other, that it all felt forced and too much, like the author just wanted to pack as much shock as possible into as few pages as possible. The one aspect that I did enjoy though was the poetry. Noa, the main protagonist, is a poet and so some of the descriptors that she put to things and to people were very exciting bits of imagery and her poems throughout were all extremely well-done, my favorites in particular being Lost Girls and Mermaid Hearts.

Definitely a lot of potential, but failed to hit the mark for me personally. I won't be reading the rest of this series.
