My sister loved it so I don't regret my time reading it but let's just say I don't want to dive into that genre in the near future, it just isn't for me.

The main reason being the glossary situation, very hard for me to be immersed in the book when I felt like I constantly needed to check back to understand what terms meant.

@@Kendallsreads I see your point with the glossary, that was hard for me too, especially since I read it in kindle. The only 'wtf?' part for me was when Raeve was kidnapped by those strange mountain men who wanted her to have children. That was off. But it was something I was willing to trade, because I fell in love with it very quickly. The dragons, the magic system, the world itself. When we read about how Elluin's brother's dragon curled up in the sky, and that is also Raeve's favorite moon, that was the first time I started suspecting there was some connection between them, but it still suprised me to find out they are the same. I mean, I could have guessed it, but I didn't. 😄 I'm really looking forward to the next book, I have a feeling more and more people will find out, that princess Kyzari is actually Kaan's daughter. I wonder if Kaan knows.

I read False Prince around the same time as I read Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima! I'm a mood reader and they both fit the same reading mood I was in at the same time, so my brain groups them together. Demon King is the first in a 4 book YA fantasy series called Seven Realms, I think is the series name. Dance of Thieves I believe is a spin off of The Kiss of Deception series, so if you haven't read that, definitely do! I loved the series, solid 4 star series for me. I've been meaning to pick up Dance of Thieves, but I haven't been in a YA mood for a while, so I'm hoping to read the duology this year!

What....is the obsession with Heartless Hunter? It was so bad. Idk why it is rated so high. And I'm reading A Fate Inked in Blood now (just a few pages left to go) and it is SO MUCH better. Is there anyone else here who read Heartless Hunter and also disliked it? My thoughts in a nutshell: it's poorly written, all "tell" with no "show" and the Crimson Moth is literally just an idea, she does barely anything impressive the entire time. She's not the heroine she's described as on the book jacket. Also, the ending was a major cop-out in so many ways.
