Loved the magic very much but the character, except Rosa, weren't very loveable for me. It was a lot of discussions, fights, smoking and more discussion that made me feel less and less enthusiastic about the story.
I loved Rosa character of sassyness and sarcasm but that was about it.
Also, why isn't there more info about Niamh's sickness...

One complaint; sometimes Niamh would mention the Fair Ones. There wasn't a whole lot of explanation about the fair ones. I think they're where the magic comes from?? Then, for the marriage, their vows involved a bishop and were under God. I guess the magic/religion bugged me because I don't feel like it was explained enough.
Overall though it is a very pleasant book that left me with happy feelings.

Moderate: Sexual content and Addiction
The poor Prince regent (male lead’s older brother) was painted as a villain because he was trying to keep the kingdom afloat? And he was a bad person because he didn’t trust his drunk and immature younger brother to be responsible enough to handle that burden (which was a valid conclusion)... I confess I don’t see the logicreadbyjaimes's review against another edition

I enjoyed this book!
I really did enjoy reading this book! It was super fun and the world was so magical. I enjoyed Kit and Niamh together I thought their relationship was really sweet (I also loved that they were both queer). The ending just felt really rushed to me, but besides that, it was pretty good.
