witty and romantic! the first third was a bit slow but the plot and romance kicked in and made it a page turner in the end. a lovely queer historical romance.

Skin picking, quite a few vomit scenes but they didn't trigger my emetophobia.

A fun and super cute read! I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump and this was the perfect book to get me out of it!

♡ Rom Com

♡ The Lady Gets the Knight (but make it Sapphic)

I loved the humor in this book.  The way the characters interacted was nicely done as well. 

When I read this I wasn’t in much of a mood for it but pushed through and ended up really enjoying it.  The plot wasn’t too confusing as some fantasy books can be, but this kept my interest.  It was such an entertaining read.

And the queer rep was better than I was expecting actually.

POV: Duel, Third Person

I loved this book so much!!! Surprisingly intense and action-packed while still holding onto funny and not forced dialogue, well-rounded characters, and cute and earnest romance. Despite the romance, this is not a romance-driven book, but a friendship-driven book, and one of the best found families I have ever read.
