Overall an enjoyable read, although it kind of lost me at the last 10% of the book— I just grew bored. I thought the fantasy world was interesting, but could have been better; although, the way, the author integrated the fantasy meshed well with that regency tone of the novel. The writing was good, and Aliza was a good main character and narrator. It’s overall a solid pride and prejudice retelling. However, interesting enough for me to continue with the series.
