Before I read Crossed, I did read the other books in the series that came before it and LOVED them!
Hooked will forever be a top tier read for me!
So I was excited going into Crossed, after enjoying the others so much…Until I started it 🫣
This book was almost DNF’d. I struggled HARD and legit forced myself to finish it hoping it would get better… It didn’t.
The whole thing just felt weird and didn’t really make sense. The plot twist was OBVIOUS, like so obvious it made me angry. The romance just felt weird, and the MMC was just not it for me.
Now this “technically” is labeled as not a retelling…It is very much a retelling for Hunchback of Notre dam. Which I’m sure doesn’t quite help my feelings, as honestly even as an adult. The Disney movie still creeps me out. It’s a ⭐⭐⭐ from me…
Now Hexed on the other hand…
Absolutely FANTASTIC!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from me all the way!
Now if you’ve known me for any length of time, The Little Mermaid is quite literally my addiction. So this book being the “not” retelling of The Little Mermaid just adds to my love for it.
Top tier FMC and MMC. The story was amazing. The spice was spicing and didn’t feel out of place.
Not once did I get bored, or put off by this book. I was definitely left completely satisfied, but also wishing there was more haha.
Highly recommend this book, and all the others in the series. MINUS Crossed, just skip that one completely..
