Yes
(Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.)
Bitter Medicine immediately hooked me with the premise of a romance between an elf and immortal. And what begins as this fantasy premise, only evolves. The fantasy elements begin to bloom and we are able to see a world full of talents and dangers. With cute chemistry and plenty of awkward moments - this made me feel very seen - you instantly root for them. But beneath the surface, Bitter Medicine turns into an introspective story about choice.
Who are we? It takes a universal theme and breaks it down for us in a way that manages to resonate with readers. Are we just a sum of all the things we do for people? Our skills, high test scores, and jobs? Or are we just who are family is, where we were raised? Bitter Medicine unexpectedly struck a chord within me.
