The trope in this manga is my guilty pleasure🍵 Gender bender, royalty, a possible love triangle(?), and secret identity!! No questions asked I devoured this shoujo💕 (and the author did aaron dirty😭)

Advance reader copy provided by the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I went into this manga knowing that it is not normally my cup of tea, but I wanted to expand on my manga reading tastes to see if I could discover more things which I liked. I am happy that I was able to read this book because it enabled me to read outside of my comfort zone, and I did like it to a degree. I would be tempted to read volume 2 but I don't think it would be high on my reading list if I did continue with the series. If I did buy the second volume, I would probably read it because it was a fast read and not because it was a read that I really anticipating. But I do want to know what will happen in the series.
In terms of the plot, I liked it but I wasn't completely invested in it, and I didn't like the concept of Freya needing to become the crown prince. The plot of the story did surprise me. There was a twist, and I was like, "Oh my god! The author actually went there." That is a reaction which I very rarely have in books that I read. I am slightly invested in the story because I want to know what will happen, but I don't know if I will continue on with the series.
I didn't mind the characters in this story. My favourite character was Aaron. I did feel like we didn't really get to know anyone though, as this is a plot based story. The story is filled with action rather then getting to know the characters.
Overall, I did enjoy this book and I don't regret reading it.

So I'm super interested to see where this story is going... I did feel a little bit let down at the heartbreaking plot twist, although I knew it was going to happen (I've read enough of these to be able to see what twist they might take.) However, I held a tiny hope that I might have been wrong. Nope. Not wrong. Oh well. I can't wait until vol. 2 comes out so I can see the characters grow and see how things continue to play out.

I don't know if I liked this or not? I like the idea of the series but it was a slow start and there is a major (?) character death very on, which felt oddly paced? I will probably read this online for a few volumes before buying more volumes. The art is pretty, and I'm liking the characters so far, but am not adoring any of the characters yet. MC is overly teary, which is annoying.

It was okay, I think I just need more world building and to get more attached to the characters. Will be continuing eventually!
