I had higher hopes for this book :( I didn’t ever really feel like I got to know the characters and the pacing was kind of all over the place. But she’s so pretty and I already own the second book lmao

This book was fine. I'm not really sure how I felt about it. I liked the magic system.

THE FANTASY THAT I'M LOOKING FOR???? awalnya kepincut gara2 cover nya cantik, pas tau genrenya fantasy langsung makin penasaran (i'm a big fan of fantasy). TURNS OUT BENERAN BAGUS DONG. Suka banget cara author ngedeskripsiin suasananya bener2 feels magical, terus unik banget disini teh nya itu punya power masing2 tergantung bahan dan takaran yg digunakan. Rasanya jadi kepengen ikut nyobain teh buatan Ning!
