I think this book just made me irrationally angry right from the get go.
Our fmc, Quinn, starts off as this quirky, relatable down to earth girl. She's got curves, normal sized boobs, glasses, and bad hair days. Here I am rejoicing because this girl isn't one of those perfect girls that everyone swoons over, she's just a normal girl. Yeah. No. For like ten pages. Then she loses a ton of weight overnight and gets a flat stomach. She can suddenly see perfectly and doesn’t need glasses. Her hair grows and is perfect and thick and lucious. People literally stop her in the street to tell her how amazing she is. Because she just wasn't up to par before with all her flaws I guess, right?
Maybe I’m looking too deep into this, but like I said. Angry. Honestly, I was so frustrated by this that it put a damper on the rest of the book for me. Not that there was much of a plot anyways. This book is just two guys trying to out macho each other to get the girl. There’s some segments of her learning to fly, and coming into her power, but for the vast majority. Two dudes fighting over the all perfect, no flaws, gorgeous girl. Not even two dudes, plus the entire supernatural community, because not only is she flawless, apparently she's the last of her line, and bound to be super powerful or something. It didn’t really get into that too much, so who knows.
