The initial story was engaging, I'd thought that the fairytales they were supposed to be wouldn't be real in this world. When I learned that everything kinda went sideways. 

The dialogue was horrible and went immensely unrealistic. The story was heading so much towards an ending that the characters made assumptions and giant leaps in logic that no one would ever make in that situation, which made it had to empathise with the characters. 

Not to mention that the ending explained literally nothing of the magic or the curse or the book or anything. Like there is a curse but it's also just a normal person killing people? Pick one and stick to it. 

Besides the diaglogue being shitty the book in general was also just badly written. Many things were repeated multiple times which also just made parts boring. Not a fan
