Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

This book really got me emotionally a lot of times. I was both laughing and crying at several points throughout the story. Most books are lucky to get me crying once but this one really did pack a punch.

However, it wasn’t without its flaws. I really struggled with the grey area of the age gap. There wasn’t any sexual contact between them before they were both over the age of 18, but due to the nature of the way the mating mechanics worked there was a decent amount of uncomfortable grey area.

Also the token Latino character was kind of difficult for me to swallow. His character didn’t have any depth and he was written in a way that just screamed “bilingual written by a monolingual”

It has a very strong start, but loses the plot around half way. Characters behave very strangely and contrary to either their personality or the world building. The underage romance is also a bit cringy - in real life this kind of relationship and power dynamic would be seen as very toxic by most rational adults. ‘Magic’ doesn’t make it ok.
