A gay romance in New Zealand where they get stuck together parenting an egg baby for a school assignment. That's what I knew going in and it sounded fantastic. It's also set in a magic school, which I didn't know, but would have only made it more appealing. As it is though, this is one book where magic is there only to facillitate the romance. They get stuck sharing a bed because the egg baby is magic and cries when they don't. They later get accidently magically bonded.

This is mostly fluffy and pretty cute and moves along at a pretty good pace. It's advertised as enemies to lovers, but it doesn't feel like it fits that trope at all. They're "enemies" for the first 20%-ish, but it's nothing more than the protagonist expressing that they don't like each other. There is nothing more explicit on-screen than touching and kissing and talking about things, which is definitely happening in the background.

*I read this via a DRC from Edelweiss*

FIVE STARS ARE NOT ENOUGH FOR THIS BOOK!!!

This is a novel composed of all of the best tropes, honestly. Rivals to lovers, fake dating, Oh No I Have Feelings Now, fake marriage (technically a real one)…and of course the egg baby. The egg baby was what made me interested in this book in the first place.

4.5 / idiots to lovers done to perfection. there were definitely some parts I wish were fleshed out more, like the whole magical boarding school, but this was just a really cute read overall! this read similarly to a fanfic but the best parts of one.
