Overall just wayyyyyyyyy too long for the story that was told. Didn’t help that it felt like 10% of it was descriptions of the notes in various wines
I enjoyed earlier in the story and the end of the story but the 88% in the middle… not so much. Book was definitely cringey more often than not, but (at times) I was entertained and I will (probably) finish the main trilogy

Something about this novel just felt very old to me. Maybe it's the writing style, maybe it's the constant use of "mobile phone..." I can't quite put my finger on it. But it just felt old to me, and I wasn't really enjoying it that much.
Maybe I'll give it another go in the future.

I really enjoyed this initially, but it just dragged on way too much. The book could probably be about 300 pages shorter. I also hate the insta-love and the oh I told you I love you and now we’re legally married???? 😵💫😵💫 okay lack of agency . The plot started to go crazy too. It jsut was a bit too cheesy. Maybe I’ll try to pick it up later but woof. This put me in one hell of a reading slump

3.75 rounded up. This was surprisingly fun with fluid writing. I was originally very annoyed with FMC but the reveal solved that for me. As is normal with romances, the progress of the relationships was ridiculously fast. And not just the romantic ones, but also the friendly ones, like between the different witches and vampires. People progressed from centuries of hating each other to crying friends in like 3 days time. FMC's magic was also so very convenient and powerful.
I legit thought the author might kill FMC there for a sec.
There's this one scene where FMC is upset and wants to leave and MMC holds her and wont let her leave until she calms down and they can talk it out. And it is very unclear to me whether or not we are all on the same page that this is not ok, or if the female author secretly thinks it's kinda hot.
I've got more stuff to say about this book, good and bad. Maybe I'll write more later, kinda want to keep reading rn tho.

How can a book that started so well end so bad? At which point does a thirty-something PHD professor/historian become an three-year-old infantilized woman? Why so much wine? Why the narration is so abrupt that you're in the middle of a conversation and in the next line they're doing something completely different?
