I loved this so much, the worldbuilding, the magic system based on magical libraries and grimoires, the characters and the whole theme of not judging someone based on personal biases, the romance subplot, the unrelenting love for books and all things involved, everything was done masterfully and this definitely is one of my favorite books of the year.
It's a shame that I wasn't able to read it fully in less time, because I think reading it during a very chaotic month didn't do me any good because it is very heavy on descriptions of the world and the actions of the characters and it definitely requires a lot of attention and engagement. You absolutely can tell how much thought and love Margaret Rogerson put into every single sentence and setting and dialogue, which makes me want to re-read it one day so I can appreciate it more fully, even though it was still a five-star book.
