I have mixed feelings. I started this book bc I had started an incomplete series in the same world and wanted more. I'm kinda neutral of RHs. I can take 'em, or I can leave 'em.

This however was just insta-love upon insta-love. Every single guy she meets is just instantly head over heels after speaking to her for five minutes. The first one had me rolling my eyes but all five? Give me a break. 

Not to mention they all have to comment on how special and amazing her wings are...bc they're a different colour than usual. 

The insta-love had me gagging (not in a good way) but at least liked it enough to continue to the next book. Definitely not as good as I first thought it was going to be tho.
