it's been so long since i read a good fantasy book (im in my romance mood for the past few months).
so, this is refreshing.

i really love everything in this book and i enjoyed it so much.
and i love loveee the female rage in the last chapter.

To start: wow that damn end I was not expecting any of that like damn. But overall this was good! Loved Dianna and Liam they were entertaining and felt like they really built into this friendship then love. This book was a bit slow to me and same thing kept happening, like they were being betrayed and mislead left and right at what point do you stop trusting???

I wanted more about the creatures and the powers and this world. I liked the world but wasn’t able to be immersed, that’s what I was looking for. I wanted more actions cause the powers seemed cool, I will definitely read the next one cause i gotta know how this ends but still really enjoyed.

This was our July book club book and while it took time to get into it. It was a surprisingly good read in the second half of the book.

slow-paced

Soooo much potential, but the execution murdered this story. The pacing was immensely slow and all the sudden rushed the plot forward before slowing down again. The characters are bland and stereotypical, the magic system is never really explained at all. The whole book is about Dianna saving her sister that she loves so much or whatever but their bond is nonexistent and only exists through the reader being told it exists. Eh just poor writing, romance was cheesy and had me rolling my eyes. Only finished it because of the high reviews but save your time- this is just another tiktok romantasy book, you’re not missing anything by not reading this.
