Nocturnal Book Reviews

Egalley thanks to Night Shade Books
Interesting concept, but the execution is somewhat dry, and that's probably why I couldn't give this book a higher rating.

I mean, tooth fairy? How awesome is that? The evil plot of stealing children's innocence early so the teeth will get corrupted and the Fae won't gather vital for them Old Magic should have worked. The identity of the villain is pretty cool, Gemma's situation as someone who is in the spotlight as a girlfriend of a young politician adds spice to the whole thing. The training, the job, the world-building - it all should have worked.

But.

Either the story didn't gain intensity at all or lost focus too early. It's all smudged, the threads stay loose, the reality of the conflict fails to grab your attention. It just wasn't sharp enough.

I did enjoy the book, but it wasn't memorable and didn't affect me in any way unfortunately.
