This is what happens when my place gets flooded. I get to read 2 and a half books in a day. So, after I finished Sarah Dessen's Lock and Key, I grabbed this and totally loved it. It still hasn't reached the Trese (by Budgette and Kajo), Popped (by Chinggay Labrador) or Alamat ng Gubat (by Bob Ong) levels of love but I still love this.
I love the world that was created to make me feel the otherworld. It's not in HD but its getting there. I guess it's coz the focus is more on making us feel the emotions thru the conversations. I suddenly remembered my Humanities teacher, I didn't like him, a lot! Anyway, the thing that I liked most about this is the manga feel to it. It has the secret, i drive myself crazy,somewhat hopeless and were not fit for each other love story between a super cool guy and a faster-than-a-kiss-ish girl (hmmm...or my sassy girl). Then it has the trial/tournament part which is almost always present in an action manga. The plot was very creative and entertaining. And I'm starting to sound like a person who does book critiques. Elkkkkk.
Part 2 is more of an adventure story for me. I didn't feel the love story much even if Yana was so into it. So into jealousy. He he he. I didn't feel Brylle much even during his POVs coz he's too mr. Mope-a-lot. His kasungitan/kasupladuhan was not as effective coz there's the mopiness or gloominess. Kinda like Yoon Shi Yoon in Prime minister and I. OMG! Prince Rouel from which time are you? Comic relief? Seriously, who says that? Wait, is he the same age as Yana? I forgot. He's probably ancientish.
I felt sad when they sent Clerion back to his people. I was like WTF! He did it to save the princess!! I like him. He's bad-good guy. I hope he shows up again.
So when is the next part going to be released? I wanna know what happened to Brylle. Was he dumbleodred? Or is he just like Jack in Everbound? Or like ichigo undergoing special training?
If I were to rate this, it would be a 4/5. It would have given it a higher rating but a line from the story kept bugging me till the end, "she won't get hurt unless she's the real heiress".
I'm sure it's a typo but it distracted me. I even questioned my understanding of unless and even googled it hahaha. I don't know why that got to me. I'm no grammar police, duh, I can't be. I have lapses as well and I'm not good in spelling. Hehehe .
I'd you're a fan of everneath or the Iron Fey series, you might wanna check this series out.
Thanks for reading!
