I received this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review

Okay, this is going to be a mini-review because I finished this book a week and a half ago, but didn't write the review until now..... stupid, lovely, addicting K-dramas distracted me.

Anyhow, I wasn't a fan of this book. I was looking forward to a quick-witted main lead who could hold her own with the tricky Goblin King, but that definitely isn't what we got. I was expecting a love story that made sense and built up until we could feel the forbidden love between them– all I felt was desperation and surrender. I don't know why they love each other or how it happened. I don't know really what the point of the book was. There was no takeaway for me or something that I'll hold from it or even a line I can say I remember or feel when I think about the book.

The scenery was nice and some of the music stuff, although it went so far that I think I did not fully understand the book because I couldn't understand the music and I know music convenes feeling, so perhaps that is why I feel like I missed something from the book???

Perhaps I'm not being too fair to this book and my only excuse is that after a week, I can't remember if I liked anything about it :/ I only remember what I didn't like and how relieved I was when I finished it.

People who like and know music may enjoy this book more than I, so I'd be more likely to perhaps recommend it to them.
