⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
“Even Though I Knew the End” by C.L. Polk was a well paced, intriguing, and entertaining sapphic novella! I didn’t know too much going in, but I often find that adds to my reading experience. I enjoyed the setting—1940s Chicago, which combined perfectly with a magical romance. The unique atmosphere and a magical main character detective.
I would’ve liked more character development with the side characters, and maybe more backstory too.
Overall, I enjoyed this one as I wrapped up my reading goals for the year.
