The most predictable and boring book I’ve read all year. It was certainly a fairytale but with overdone tropes. I expected so much more, and the writing is lovely but… dull. Even the romance is a little bit dull, yo be honest.

An outstanding balance between an enthralling fantasy world filled with German folklore and well-done world building, as well as a great rivals-to-lovers romance that hits all the tropes I love to see.
