Book review : Of Beast and Burden

 Book review : Of Beast and Burden by Kelsey Kicklighter is a first book in Hollow and Hill series that is thrilling fantasy and full of romance.

Faye is fun and sarcastic, which I love, but she can be super clueless to the fae stuff sometimes which does get on my nerves slightly. I love Gage and his witty humor. Kellan is fantastic. 

The wit and humor and sarcasm is at peak level. I love how the seelie and unseelie are brought into this book relying on myth, but also elements of the author, which is a great blend. 

The main character is bi, so there are hints of that. There kind of a love triangle as in Faye can’t decide who to love- gage or her knight. I wasn’t a big fan of all that, but it doesn’t diminish the enjoyment of the book. 

While the overall pace was slow, the book is an entertaining giving you lots of twists and turns which fascinates the reader to complete the book and finally find out who will win in the love triangle. 

 There were some pretty great lines in this book.

“Elation and fear, strange bedfellows.” – Interesting, and true.

“No. I am having emotions, and I am going to hide until they go away again.” – I feel so seen…

“You have to be the monster’s monster.” – Well, that’s dark and definitely going to come back around at some point.

“It’s been a considerably long time since you glared at me. I was starting to miss it.” – Just one of the beautiful lines out of Gage’s mouth.

“You should never tell a queen what she cannot do.” – YESSSSS! Own that title babe!

I loved reading this fascinating fantasy book and recommend all fantasy book lovers to give this book a try. I am thankful to netgalley and the publisher for providing me this book in return of an honest review.

Happy Reading!
