Wirklich dark romance/ fantasy Es lässt sich gut lesen und zieht einen in den Bann, aber die „Beziehung“ hinterlässt ein super ungutes Gefühl. Ich würde gerne wissen wie es für Tessa ausgeht, aber ich mag das Gefühl nicht, was das Buch bei mir auslöst und werde es abbrechen. Es fehlen zwischendrin die Szenen in denen man aufatmen kann.
3.25⭐️ I really liked the world building and magic system as well as the societal structures in this book. However, what I did not like was Theon. The way I’m still praying that he isn’t our love interest in this is insane. He did nothing but piss me off. Everything he could do wrong he did wrong. I really liked Luka in the beginning but I’m not so sure nearing the end. The only true one is Axel and we definitely did not get enough of him. Tessa also pissed me off from time to time BUT EVERYTHING SHE DID WAS REASONABLE. She was thrown into a new reality completely cut off from everyone and everything she knew and was forced to be bound to Theon of all people. Trust I’d have ended it if i was her. Anyway I really hope it’s a why-choose or we get a new love interest in the next three books. Honestly I cannot deal with this guy. I’m extremely confused about the story in general I’m not sure I’ll keep reading it right this moment, but I do like tessa and with that ending I want to find out what else is going to happen eventually.
Dark Romance Fantasy- das war heftig… Ich bin ein kleiner Softie und das hat mich mitgenommen. Götter, Fae, Trauma, Folter, Dom-Sub-Beziehung. Die Gefühle werden so genau beschrieben, und die Handlungen so detailliert erzählt, dass es mir in der Seele wehtat. Daher zieht es sich, aber wird nicht langweilig. Es hat was von Shadowhunters gemischt mit die Bestimmung für Erwachsene mit Magie irgendwie… und dazu ein bisschen Shades of Grey ohne den Sex… Für mich war’s eigentlich zu heftig. Aber jetzt kann ich halt nicht mehr aufhören 😅
I would even rate it 6 stars
3.5 ⭐️
