After the devastating events at Zodiac Academy, we have to deal with this darker world we're faced with. Lionel seeks to hurt us, the Nymphs seek to hurt the entire Fae race, and between all of it, we just have to try and survive each day as it comes. I'm afraid of everything falling apart, but it looks like it already has.

Cursed Fates

I’m actually kinda pissed because I was dead set on hating this series because of how much I disliked the first several books but this book was dare I say gripping.

I’m pissed because I was listening g to the ending at the nail salon and audibly gasped. Literally will be thinking about how well this ending was compared to the first books. I’m unwell. I was hate reading these books and now I might actually like them?!?

  The first books in the series was amazing and easy to read and full of a lot of interesting things. This book on the other hand.... 

   685 pages, but the action start on the page 579... 106 pages from almost 700 were interesting and the rest really boring or not so good that was worth it of reading.😮‍💨

    A lot of things didn't make sense or have a consistency, for example, the things about their parents. When they first saw their life, it's sad the mom was a servant and the father fall in love immediately even though she was a commoner . But, when the second vision appeared and they find out Gabriel it's their brother, it shows that the mom was a princess from another kingdom and the dad saved her. 🤨

  A lot of things could've make sense if the authors spend another 5 minutes with the idea they came up with. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

  Also, a lot of things in the books were introduced just to fill the page ( a lot of them very unnecessary) and too much of changing POV s .  

   A thing I appreciate with the diverse number of POVs , it's hard to be so unique with every character and I think they nailed it, feeling like I really read from different perspectives, but what it's toooooo much it's bad. 🤷🏻‍♀️

   All of this is just MY OPINION, and maybe other people think different, but for me this book get very hard to read already, being very very boring.

I seriously consider to dnf the series just because of it. That is unbearable. And if Lionel will do what even Paris Warner would've never done (despite Juliette being all weird in that moment) than I'm going to throw up in all seriousness.

Also I cannot believe how easily one can just cast a Guardian Bond. That shouldn't be so easy. And the affected people should have a say in it. It's insane how fast it can be placed. If it's that easy it's a miracle Fae don't use this as a weapon to fight. But I guess because the pull goes both ways they would rather not have that power. Still..INSANE. That bond needs to be gone on every single one who has it right now. The fact this kind of magic is even POSSIBLE is jarring. It's in their nature to never back down and never listen to another Fae because they despise orders but the body accepts a GUARDIAN BOND??? Truly INSANE!

(Caleb and Seth were my only source of light during the second half. He needs to get over his "straightness" because I need something to look forward to or I am going to dnf)

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT ENDING

The ending??? 💀

This book is so big that I'm confused by everything that happened but the only thing I know for sure is that Lionel is fucking disgusting and I’m really afraid of the next one

————————————

I came back to do a decent review bc sometimes I use my own reviews to remember what happens in the book so here we go. All these books so far have followed the same pattern for me: 

0-30% meh
30-80% love it, best book ever
80-97% *screaming crying throwing up* I’ll never read the next one
97-100% *downloading the next one on my kindle*

I wish I was strong enough to give up on this series now bc I know things will get worse but I can't 😔 anywayyy the beginning of the book I wasn't really liking it and mainly bc of bluelance, I know a lot of people love them but for me they’re a little boring idk. Now now, the threesome???? HELLO 😭 Caleb is a genius and we love him for that but istg I thought his plan was to be just a chaperone and not participate in the while thing 

The cutest thing in the world was seeing torydarius falling in love, every scene of them running and having coffee together I kept kicking my feet bc ughhh they’re everything. I also loved seeing the friendship between heirs x vegas developing, I wish the authors had brought this up sooner but I understand why it took so long

Spoiler below so if you haven't read it, be careful 🚨

It was obvious that Lance would go to prison at some point but fuck that scene hurt so much

Lionel is sick as hell, what he did at the end with the guardian thing was disgusting and I imagine that in the next book it will be even worse

Sidney Schaffner
