I’ve never read ACOTAR, but one thing I feel like The Cruel Prince does do well is showing fae’s simultaneous distain and fascination for humans. Like in that book you always get the vibe that humans are looked down upon for their mortality but also slightly envied?? Idk I could be looking into it too much, but I do think TCP structures it’s fae society in an interesting way. However, it’s not very mysterious and lacks a lot of fae folklore.
But I second what the other anon said, I love how your works lean into the uncanny/otherworldly nature of fae. Honestly so much more refreshing than the stereotypical “monster boyfriend” trope
Interesting! I'm getting back into fantasy more lately, so, maybe I will end up checking these out just to gauge what I think, hah.
Also thank you! I love otherworldly creatures so I'm glad they come across as uncanny.
I mean I do love monster boyfriends that are just like... uwu... monster boyfriends. But I love a good genuine monstrosity, too!

no eddie really is a boob guy. like he loves ur tits so much. he says they’re his best friends and he talks to them all the time and you’ve learned to just ignore him as he has “girl talk with his girls” (as he refers).
the first time he saw your tits, you were straddling him on your couch and he went blank for a moment as his fingers dug into your hips before smoothing up your sides to grasp at your chest, squeezing the warm flesh and brushing his thumbs over your nipples. “oh…oh yeah…we’re gonna be really good friends.” at the time, you didn’t know he was actually talking to your tits and not you.
when he’s had a long day he drapes himself over you and mumbles into your shirt covered chest, “can i talk to the girls? i miss them.” and when u nod and he wiggles his way under your shirt, you nearly roll your eyes at his dramatic sigh. “hi babies, did you miss me? i missed you. you look great today, i’m loving this color on you.”
you smile to yourself as you listen to him go back and forth with himself. “what’s that? god, i know, you must hate being in this restricting cage, one moment i’ll talk to her.”
his head pops up from under your shirt and your eyebrows raise in indication that you’re listening. “they want out the bra babe. said they’re feeling claustrophobic in there.” “did they?” “mhm.” “mm, well tell them i apologize, they can come out.”
he winks and then he’s gone again. “good news girls, you’re free!”
