While this isn’t the most unique concept or captivating FMC, this book did its job as the first in a series: it set up enough (if too much) mystery about a curse, a prophecy, a world we don’t know much detail about, and set the tension between our love interests. This was interesting enough that I want to keep reading, so it accomplished what it needed to. I want to see more romantic scenes in the next book, and I want to see Emilia come into her own as a FMC and prove she’s got the bravery and the cunning to be a worthy player in the conflict.
4.5 reread before I read the 2nd one in the coming week!!

3.5/5
I am currently in the midst of a reading slump and so I picked this book up as YA fantasies never fail to put me back into the spirits of reading. Where I had a fun enough time reading this book I just wasn't feeling as connected to the characters or the story as I wish I had been. I know this is because of my reading slump as there were definitely scenes that I enjoyed however, overall, this book did not do as much for me as I had hoped it would. Still a good read though and maybe I will try again when my reading slump dissipates.
