My Rating: 3/5

I had remembered hearing about this series when I first started watching booktube about 4 years ago and I was interested in what the story was about. I was curious about what the world would contain and in some aspects the romance. But this is very much a post-twilight book. The romance and the use of a love triangle is something that was very popular during the post-Twilight YA craze. That being said it was an interesting world and I enjoyed some aspects of the story. Especially the different mythological creatures. That being said most aspects were predictable and corny. I would recommend this for fans of Underworld for sure as long as you won't miss the vampires too much.

Thanks for reading,
Sidny
