Review of 'Grim lovelies' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

It just barely squeaked by into a three star rating. Whatever theme there might be is clearly not well developed because I don’t know what it is. Something about prettiness and ugliness? It’s a decent enough urban fantasy if that’s your thing. There’s some gore and the romances are … problematic… but it’s mostly harmless so I guess it’s fine? It gets a big “meh” from me and that’s what three stars means.
