Still not really my cup of tea romance wise. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed reading it but it was the other aspects of the world and characters that captivated me more than the main romance. The "mate" thing seems to make all of these pretty insta-lovey so maybe I should just accept that that's how most of the romances will play out but ugh I like a little indecision in my romance! Some confliction, some angst, some will they or wont they. The mate thing just makes it all seem so...inevitable
