Not for me. Wasn't interested in the plot, so I think I'm just not the target audience after all, and that's okay.

Sooo this is basically fem Naruto and shadowy Kurama story in the world of magic cards, knights and magical ghosts. 

I'm kinda disappointed because these characters have deep backgroud stories but they have no personality traits whatsoever. 

Also the main girl isn't strong or cold like author wants us to believe she just always cries and she isn't even cry baby she just cries for aesthetics... 😭

Moreover the love story...... WHERE IS THE TENSION??!! It's bland probably 'cause of bland characters...

Anyways I thought it's gonna be 5 stars read but sadly it's only 4 and I would probably rate it 3 stars if I wasn't reading trashy books recently and this book is well put together just wasn't entertaining for me .
