*from notion archive* Awwww this was so cute. honestly I wasnt quite sure what i was going into. i bought this in the summer and hadnt had a chance to read it until now as it was a hardback. at first the magic system was quite overwealming combined with the amount of spanish but I got the hang of it and it was good. id say I would have liked a bit more romance (im in a romance mood at the moment) and it was only fufilled in the 2nd to last chapter but there were cute hints all the way through. i read it in one day, that definately helped - i feel like i could have lost the plot if id read it over a week or two. charecter wise it was good - our protagonist wasnt annoying - i liked their struggles - they felt validated by the plot however I would have liked a smidge more of exploration with being gay aswell as trans. Luca was a cool charecter I felt was underdone - I wanted to know their past with Julian but we didnt really get any of it- there were cute moments: the other trans person at their school - wholesome. trying the bathroom for the first time super wholesome. their dad accepting them awwwww
