I loved this series. The story telling element is 100% my shit and it was such a good time.

Its about a folklorist and a folklore falling in love and I loved it ok
Hello I am crying. I'm happy this was the first book I finished this year.
THERE IS NO RELEASE DATE FOR THE SEQUEL AND I AM DISTRAUGHT
Despite taking forever to read deeper than 14 pages, I really really loved this.
Its was really bad.
Even if you disregard the Instalove, the climax of the story was at 40%. The dialogue was AWFUL. It kept doing that thing where it couldn't commit to talking in an old timey way or a modern way, which was cringey.
I don't think the author understands how kingdoms work and what a kings job is?? The book starts with a king physically showing up to wake up his daughter for get Latin lesson?? Like he doesn't have other things to be doing????? like run a kingdom??????? And then instead of going to her Iessons, he sent her daughter and her friend dress shopping for a birthday party on his dime.
Everything else was just bad. The villain was introduced when it was time for him to die. There was no real character development. The author tried really hard to make the characters seem feminist and they just weren't. They really tried for the "I'm an independent woman and I can't be held down" thing. It was bad. Both characters were just so whiny and dramatic and controlling of one another.
There was a scene where a woman was telling the LI about his friend surviving a battle and she put her hand on his arm and the MC came over to force her away??? The LI told the MC she couldn't go see her dying father because she had to wait for him???? It was B A D.
AND LETS NOT EVEN TALK ABOUT HOW LITTLE THE AUTHOR KNOWS ABOUT THE HUMAN BODY BECAUSE WOW YOU CAN NOT CAUTERIZE THAT PLEASE STOP. SIR DONT STICK THAT HOT KNIFE IN YOUR FRIENDS ARROW WOUND. S I R.
It was addicting in a train wreck sort of way. I couldn't stop because I wanted to know how much worse it could get
