The pacing felt a bit slow and dragged out for me, but overall a decent amount of angst. I wish the friendship between the Goose Girl/main character and the bird girl were more developed. The bird girl's relationship felt kind of instalove. I did check out Book 2, but haven't gotten around to it/made it a priority to read, make of that what you will.

Overall not too bad, but a little long and the protagonist got to be grating in the last third of the book. There’s only so many times I can read one character going through the misunderstandings trope.

I love Vanja. I love Emeric. I love Giselle (even though I didn't expect to). I love Ragne. I just loved this book, okay? Vanja is terrible and I love her. Emeric is awkward and cunning and I love him. The end.
