My Review: When I started this one I really was thinking that I was going to end up DNFing it. And that all was because of the pacing. This is this author first dip into the world of fantasy and don't get me wrong the book was freaking amazing and by the end, I was like NO NO NO You can't end yet!!! And that major twist at the end was just WOW I did not see that coming!! But the rest of the book especially the middle parts were very slow and really reminds me more of a contemporary novel vs. a fantasy. I mean yes this one had the cursed castle and prince etc. But the core parts of the book laid heavy in the romantic aspect and well Contempo.

I will say that as this is a series I think Kemmerer is more than capable to flourish as a fantasy author I just think that this one could have been just a tad better.

This book wow just wow. I loved what Brigid did with the characters and the world. This twist on a tale as old as time knocked my socks off for the most part. I loved how she wove elements of sci-fi (parallel worlds) with that of fantasy and her normal titles which are contemporary. This story was so beautifully woven with all of these elements and I could not put it down. I can not wait for the next title in the series and I have to say that for a first try into the world of fantasy I think the author did a bang-up first try.



Go Into This One Knowing: Dual POV (there is one more POV at the end), Blend of Scifi, Fantasy, and Heavy Contemporary, Slight Cliffhanger, A Little Slow in the Middle.
