of this book was wonky for me and it drove me a little crazy I had a hard time following the story and it seemed so jumpylike someone skipping along instead of walking you through the story.First the Good I like Fairy tale mash ups and have ...I received a free copy of this book from the publishers via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.DNF 40%Wanted is the second book in the Soelled

I kind of feel like everything that I didn t like about Spelled ...Well This was fun But I was lost and confused a good amount of the book It had a little bit to do with the fact I could not remember squat from the first book It also had to do with the jumpyness of the book.First where here then where there and now where here but wait where over there confusing right P Another thing is this Modred, Mic, Morte, Merlin All different people And I got them all mixed up constantly Then most finally THAT ENDING Sooo gonna have to read the next Well This was fun But I was lost and confused a

book I got really bored once the Camelot arc came in But I still had fun and will continue the series.I didn t think this book was as good as the first one but I still really enjoyed it This one was definitelyserious because it followed Rexi instead of Dorthea Rexi is asarcastic and morbid character than Dorthea is but I thought she was wayrelatable because she didn t constantly act like an airhead Plus she had some serious character development in this one I still loved all the snippets at the top of the chapters too They re always so funny I liked the addition of the lege I didn t

were so many convoluted and back and forth plot lines that by the middle of the book I didn t even really care what happened any I m disappointed because Spelled was such an amazing book and this is such a step backwards both character and story wise There s also a weird love triangle thing going on that seems so unnecessary and annoying to read that I was rolling my eyes every single time it came up If you loved Spelled like I di Honestly I don t even really know what I just read There were so many convoluted and back and forth plot lines that by the middle ...Another fairy tale fail I haven t read many spins on fairy tales recently that I actually enjoyed which is unfortunate since I love fairy tales so much.Wanted was a bit of a mess It reminded me a lot of the show Once Upon a Time which I stopped watching after a few seasons because it was also a mess There are at least four different tales brought together in this book, each with its own twist.The problem with this book was that it was simply all over the place The scenes didn t flow at all Another fairy tale fail I haven t read many sp...ARC provided by Netgalley and Sourcebooks Fire who is on fire with me lately As
