A bit of a slow start and the fancy English words didn't help. Bu it ended up as a funny and fantastical story. Didn't expect the romance, but enjoyed the relationship developing. Curious to read how the story continues in the next books.

I like this book. I really like her relationship. And it's interesting to learn ab the supernatural world. But the colorism, fatphobia and self hate was too much. Constantly saying shit like she was too dark and curvy was unnecessary especially when Alexia was Italian omg she barely has any melanin (she spicy white). And she wasn't fat just bc she had big boobs and hips!!
