Like A Charm by Elle McNicoll

adventurous emotional inspiring fast-paced

3.0

I loved all of the writer's previous books and they were some of my all-time favorites, this book felt flat to me. The story's premise gripped me but the world-building and the characterization were too touch-and-go for my liking. I absolutely adore the main character and her cousin's dynamic! There were many quotable moments that got me teary-eyed but because of how everything feels so rushed, with minimal build-up, it was not a five-star read. Maybe it's my personal taste but man oh man do her parents owe her a fucking apology for being cruel to her. That redemption arc at the end was not satisfying at all!

I will still read whatever works this author puts up and check the publisher!
