I love how Maehrer takes the classical "fairytale" and amplifies the things that make them so cliche but adds in the humor to almost make fun of those cliche moments. It's like reading all your favorite fairytales in one but with the hilarity of the situations and the characters.

The chemistry that all these characters have kept me on my toes. Evie and Trystan's (The Villain) chemistry is by far my favorite and yet at the same time loathed the slow burn romance. I love slow-burns they are by far my favorite type of romances. This kind of slow-burn is the one where both character's realize they love each other, realize the other loves them and will STILL not do anything about it. *sigh* maybe the next book.

I will say just like in the first book, there is a lot of lull between the scenes. Many times not much is happening and when something does happen it's an explosion of things but then it dwindles back to nothing. This lends the book to be quite long and cumbersome at times. 

As for the mysteries, there were a few things that took me by surprise but due to maybe over-explaining on the author's part or me just catching on easily, there wasn't a lot that blew my mind or that I didn't think of/discover myself. 

Still I can't wait for the next one, and it's sad I have to wait so long to see how my lovebirds will fare.
