Greymist Fair

DID NOT FINISH

I received an arc of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I DNFd this book around 32 percent. I really enjoyed the first story following Heike. I was super invested and ready to see what happens. Then it just ended and swapped to the past following a prince.

At this point it started to feel like a collecting of fairy tales the author was spinning her own tale with instead of a novel she created with inspiration from certain fairy tales. I even double checked the summary for the book and it didn’t sound like it was supposed to be short stories to me. Yes they all take place in the same town but each one so far has been from someone else’s POV. Just like a fairy tale would be.

Back to the prince story, I did not really like how it ended? I guess I failed to see how the wish / solution given was the right one. Maybe I failed to see how the prince deserved that ending?

I was just really not enjoying this story and decided it was not for me.

3.5stars

3.5 stars.

I was really invested but I love mate bonds and was annoyed at how much she fought it. Then when the ending came. Well honestly I would have preferred it to be different. Like they got back and the second book is them fighting the bad guys that popped up at the end in a different way of popping up. The mate bond being ripped away was just not my cup of tea.
