Eeugghhh. Great idea. Mediocre execution. Magic typewriters sound so cool in theory. I wish this book expanded on the lore  of that more since it is you know, kind of it’s whole thing. I did like their dynamic until SPOILER ALERT they get married?? I mean not officially but still. The span of this story is like a few months right? Few weeks? Idk. Marriage is too fast. And then once they confessed their love the banter stopped. I hate when that happens w these types of tropes! It also made me  think this was gonna talk more about the whole gods thing and that they would actually make an appearance, but they don’t. 

I think a fan fiction of the Iris and Roman using their damn typewriters would be more fleshed out storyline and character arcs then the book itself

Really likable characters tho!

Read this in one sitting it’s 4:30 am so towards the end of this I was kind of rushing through just to finish it. I started to become bored (but also tired so that may be a big component)

Great premise. Not fully fleshed out.
