It was nice to immerse myself in a new Fey series. This was a much different t take than what I'm used to, although much closer to actual Fey legend for once.

The trickster and lethal ways of the Fey were fully on display in this series which was interesting.

I enjoyed this story. It brought Faeries into the modern world but also kept it w ough of a fantasy story to keep me interested (I'm not the biggest fans of contemporaries).

I did have a couple problems with it. I felt like it sometimes didn't really know its audience that well. There were times I felt that this book should have been slightly more middle grade, and then others it was more YA with the inclusion of swear words (no complaints on that front) and talk of passion and lust. It felt a bit back and forth for me on that front. I would have preferred it to feel more consistently YA.

Also, whilst I enjoyed Ash and I loved his capricious nature, I felt the romance between him and Meghan very underdeveloped. It felt very insta-lovey and not much interaction between them of that nature before they decided they loved each other. I would have liked more banter and intimacy before declarations of love.

I also felt that our main character was incredibly naive for a girl of her age. Of course she would be clueless in the land of the Fae, but even some basic interactions of hers with humans were quite cringey. It was incredibly obvious in the beginning how the other characters were making fun of her on several occasions and she walked right into the trap everytime. Very frustrating and again made me feel like the intended audience was middle grade rather than YA at points.

However I still enjoyed my time reading this book. Definitely will be placing the next in this series on my TBR. Need to know what mischief Meghan will cause next in the Nevernever.
