2.8 stars
I loved the cover art, the concept, the world, and the themes were beautiful and my exact aesthetic. I loved the characters, and the romance was so sweet! With retellings it is hard to create a unique story with surprises and twists, but this was unlike anything else! I am, however, sorry to review; it just felt lacking. Like I finished the book and was left with more questions than when I started.
MAY HINT AT SPOILERS
Please know I am not trying to stab, but these were boggling my mind while reading!
Why did the curse let Jak have powers? I needed so much more info on the curse, the covern and Marius’s abilities and limitations, the shadow hounds? Why does Katherine visit? Her mother before her? It just says it's done. Is she rolling massive barrels of wine to the castle? Why does Marius push Jak at the angry, armed covern who hate him then be surprised with what happens next? Why did Jaks mother just tap Marius on the shoulder without any protection? Did she not say throughout the book how dangerous and deadly he is? Did they think they would win with ordinary weapons when their own, who has fantastic abilities, couldn't even do it?
The writing was beautiful but could have been done with one last check. This author has talent and beautifully creative skills in creating unique stories. Who knows, maybe I was just not in the right frame of mind while reading this? It just took me so long to finish cause I kept getting pulled out with questions and confusing descriptions that contradicted each other. I hope to see more of this writer, there is only room for improvement, and the passion is evident in his writing.
