Very interesting/unique magic system as well as whimsical, rhythmic prose before every chapter which I loved. Characters are very flat and world building needs a lot of work. Hoping those improvements will be present in the second installment. Fun, quick read overall.

The relationship feels a little forced/rushed but the plot and story is so good I don’t even care. It feels like they got together because they’re main characters and they have to. Lacking yearning and chemistry and build up. But again I don’t even feel like I care because I’m so invested in the story.
