Never-Contented Things
A Novel of Faerie
Prince and his fairy courtiers are staggeringly beautiful, unrelentingly cruel, and exhausted by the tedium of the centuries―until they meet foster-siblings Josh and Ksenia. Drawn in by their vivid emotions, undying love for each other, and passion for life, Prince will stop at nothing to possess them.
First seduced and then entrapped by the fairies, Josh and Ksenia learn that the fairies' otherworldly gifts come at a terrible price―and they must risk everything in order to reclaim their freedom.
“Sarah Porter is a genius. Her language is lush and dangerous, and her books burn with the beautiful, ferocious intensity of a bonfire in the darkest night. Read Never-Contented Things with the lights on. Then read it again.”―Brittany Cavallaro, New York Times bestselling author of A Study in Charlotte
“Sarah Porter’s Never-Contented Things creates a creepy new world like none I’ve seen before. Eerie, edgy, and filled with mystery, Porter takes us to the depths of the magical and psychological.”―Danielle Paige, New York Times bestselling author of Dorothy Must Die

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I definitely thought that this book would be about something different, and involve more of a fae storyline. I found Josh to be super creepy and the whole it’s incest but not incest part to be kind of off-putting. I understand what the author was trying to do but it was a bit much. I do still enjoy Sarah Porter’s writing but this book was just not for me.
