I stumbled upon this book while hunting down my next read. I was intrigued by the description and also by the very low price. Pros: - The writing is smooth and very easy to read. I was drawn in immediately and would often digest great lengths before putting it down. It only took me 2 days to finish. - The storyline is unique. I had a hard time getting over the "troll" element, but I appreciate that it is something different. - I am a sucker for fairy-tales, so I appreciated the old world elements wound into the plot (balls, castles, beautiful gowns...) - Some of the character were incredibly enjoyable. I loved Rhys, Matt, and Willa the most. They were well-written and likable. Cons - Hocking repeats the word 'foxy'. It made me wonder about Hocking's age, as the word seemed out of place. At first, it was only used by the main character, so I thought it was placed in there purposefully as part of her character, but then other characters started to use it. Very odd. - Some of the Trylle history was not explained clearly. Much of it was explained through dialogue, which I found tedious. Narrative would have been a better choice, in my opinion (or perhaps a mix of both). - I am just not feeling the romance between Wendy and her tracker. I am much more interested in a romance between she and Rhys. Overall, I enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to the next one!
