So misogynistic! Like, this should have been published in 2009 with how disgustingly not-like-other-girls the MC is and how arrogant and cocky the elf king is. It’s truly grotesque! The world building is poor, the dialogue is cringy, the banter is worse, and everything is a sexual innuendo. The curse thing would actually be interesting if was the sexual tension down five notches. And the whole Pale Ones thing reads of racism. Disappointed!
