I really wanted to love this book but unfortunately it fell a bit flat for me. It should have been right up my street, it had all the things I love, enemies to lovers, bit of mystery and some magic. For me though the whole tone of it was off.
When I first started it I actually thought, ooh I like this. It was funny, witty, had some great banter and I really liked the world. However I thought the tone would change, that there would be a little more depth and a development and growth in the characters and the relationship between them but it just didn't happen.
It felt like the whole thing was surface level with nothing really happening other than some bantering and fights between the two leads. There was no depth and no real feeling. Neither of the main characters was likeable and honestly I didn't really care what happened. I was pretty close to DNF ing more than once.
The relationship at the centre of the story was less slow burn and more no burn. There was zero spark and very little spice which was really disappointing.
It seems it's also the first in a series rather than a standalone. I don't think I'll be reading any further.

This was very very funny and the writing style felt very unique and I completely understand why others love this so much!
I couldn’t really get into the story at first because the writing style kind of put me off a bit. The audiobook was the only reason why I continued reading this book but once I finally got into it I really enjoyed it

At first I was deeply disappointed this wasn’t an exact copy of Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being In Love. I knew she’d have to change some things but I was not expecting her to change so much! Once I let that go though I did come to like the book for itself. I find Osric to be overly full of himself in an obnoxious way, think Squillim from SpongeBob lol. But by the end of the story the plot drew me in and I was rooting for the couple to just kiss already! Devastated to have to wait for another book.
