Right from the start I knew I would love the characters. Nell, a barista who loves coffee as much as I do, Sasha her co-worker and friend who works as a drag queen. And then we have Darragh. The mysterious guy. Who is neither dark nor light. Who wants to love but is afraid to. Speak of slowburn, you got it right here! But it‘s so good!
The characters make you fall for them, make you feel for them. And if you‘re on the more emotional side, you might end up bawling your eyes out for some of them! So beware!
An evil Queen, curses, magic, a magical land, evil and horror that‘s lurking everywhere. Irish, welsh lore woven into it…
This book spoke to me. From the first page to the last! I only took breaks from it when I had to (I‘m only human myself, unfortunately).
You want a book that sucks you into the story? Look no further! And the best bit? It‘s only book 1! By the end of this, you‘ll sit there going „noooo, I need more!“ and you will get more! With book 2. Hopefully soon! Please be soon!
