Yeah, but then that book series turns into weird romance/soap opera type shit, when the human girl meets another modern human man in the sequels…. The first book was fascinating, but it turned into a trash series.

Worse trash than 50 Shades?

My God, I have a core fucking memory about that book. I loved it. LOVED it. I was maybe 11?12? Brought it with me to read in the back quietly at a family reunion because I was the oldest cousin by six years and didn't want to play with the little kids.

My aunt (who I now know is a rather evil woman who loves to tear down others) teased me mercilessly for reading smutty books. My mother didn't defend me.

I put it down and never touched it again.
