I didn’t hate this one but I didn’t love it either. For me it was a bit challenging to envision most of the settings. Only a few parts came to life for me. I didn’t feel overly immersed in this one as opposed to other Fantasy I’ve read. I liked it but definitely not a memorable read or story for me.

I didn't want to read this book at first, but then I caught a glimpse of the blurb, and it intrigued me. Still, I didn't get what I expected.

At first, it was interesting, but then my excitement faded

But it's really beautifully written and has a great atmosphere

Cute and mysterious sapphic book! I love Lorelei so much I love how annoyed she is at everything. I loved the folklore elements and little added stories and creatures  in it, this book is defo underrated/over hated. Although I do understand that the storyline needed to be cleaned up a little bit more as it felt a bit rushed nearer the end.
