I had high hopes for The Unseelie Prince, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to its hype. The story felt overly familiar, relying on played out fae tropes without adding anything fresh or exciting. The romance, which seemed to be the main focus, came off as forced and lacked genuine chemistry. I don’t usually mind a bit of tension in romance, but this was definitely a bully romance — and that just wasn’t for me. The dynamic felt unhealthy and uncomfortable rather than intriguing or romantic. Overall, the pacing was uneven — dragging in some places and rushing through important moments in others. It felt like the book was trying to do too much without delivering on any of it believably. I was left feeling bored and uninvested, which is never what you want from a fantasy novel. I won’t be finishing the series—unless Valroy suddenly turns into a saint. But hey, maybe he’ll redeem himself in another book. Take this review however you want: a warning, a rant, or just some friendly advice!
