The magic system is not well explained. Intriguing plot but fell short imo. The story kept going in circles. Don’t fall in love with any characters. There’s no depth in them. And the only character dev is Emilia coming slightly on terms to fight back for 2 mins at the end.

Whimsical, beautifully written, loving characters.

What if Addie gave VE the idea to spin this story? This is sad and equally exhilarating. Loved it!

Didn’t disappoint, it was worth it. At times it felt too stretched, not a lot was happening. But ended in a beautiful way.

I have no word to explain how I feel about this book now. All the twists and turns, some I saw coming some I was shocked. The characters are so so good.
Can’t believe it’s over!
