Super hard to rate. I enjoyed the first 20%, appreciated the slow burn, the characters and the writing and when there was a shift in setting and characters, I was intrigued by the plot but started to not like the book anymore. The writing got super repetitive and the plot became inconsistent. There were so many points where I was so confused by some line drops, that I assume were supposed to be foreshadowing for the grand reveal but I would forget them as they were one liners and when the grand reveal/ plot twist happened, I was SO confused. But I also liked the plot twist?? Idk i’m very confused and don’t know how to feel. 2.5-3.

How Does It Feel was a 3.5 read for me as I enjoyed the writing, the trials but it did not 'finish' me. I was more invested in the beginning rather than the end including the plot reveal. It had the familiar Fae betrayals, mistrustful and easily obsessed with anything beautiful.

Very dark book but found it very hard to put down. Editing probably could have done with some work and arguably not a great quality book but regardless I loved it and Can’t wait for the next one to come out
 
The twist ahhh !
