3.0

The life of a bisexual british were-bear with a vampire roommate [and a crush on a werewolf] gets complicated by the arrival of a fae prince [and feelings for one of her female co-workers.]

This was an interesting concept. The author took all the famous [and overused] tropes and exploited them to the fullest.

This books focuses on Zelda’s [our protagonist] love life. This is a fast-paced, sarcastic and light-hearted book. She’s fat, bisexual and [drumroll] a werebear.

If I’m honest, I didn’t like this book.  The author tried to write so many tropes that they were poorly developed. Also, it all seemed rather rushed; the book jumps from scene to scene without transition.

It was a fun premise, so I'm disappointed.
