It might be an unpopular opinion but I really liked her writing style in this one, I think it was what made the book for me. The characters are a bit flat, and I admit I only cared about Luzia, Santangel and Valentina but the story was interested enough to keep me going. The ending might’ve objectively
felt like an easy way out but I enjoyed it anyway because I wanted them to be finally happy and I didn’t mind the way the got there

4.5 - I thoroughly enjoyed this!

I was very worried about the ending but I LOVED IT AND I AM SO HAPPY!!!!!!!

It reminded me of the end of Lauren Kate’s Fallen series, with “they fell in love for the first, and last, time” snsknddk

Why was this general plot low key the same as The Night Circus????
