The cameo of
Seryu
was so welcoming, having read Elizabeth's previous works. Absolutely loved the atmosphere building, but only wished that the main character, tru, had a bit more personality. Erlang as a male lead was hopelessly romantic towards the end, bnut for 80% of the book I really didn't feel the vibe. The beginning and the last third of the book was the best, whilst the middle was a muddle - I often had to refer back to earlier pages to see who is who. I look forward to delving into her other books in the future!

Beauty and the Beast meets Howl's Moving Castle, what more could you want? This book was everything to me. I loved it so much. The writing and atmosphere was phenomenal and each character was more charming than the next. I already know I'll be rereading this again in the future. And that ending, it near killed me. You won't regret picking up this book.

I loved this, Elizabeth Lim knows how to write a fantasy and this story was just what I needed. I don't necessarily think this is a beauty and the beast retelling even loosely but overall this was really great
