AHHH finally attempting to write a coherent review on this masterpiece of a book.
this is the first book in a wonderful adult romantasy trilogy! MY GAWDD if this was the first book, I can’t wait for the next two.
i buddy read this with the lovely Steph and we were supposed to finish it in December but we both finished it in 2024 OOPS. 👀
anyways….ANWBSKSBSOSBSK.
that was my brain after that ending cause WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. it was an ending that made me sob so hard and then it said “to be continued” and i was like NO. NO WHAT THE HELL WHERES THE NEXT PAGE?!?!?! how cruel is that! i secretly loved it bc now I’m super hype and can’t wait to get my grabby little fingers on A WINTERS SECRET.
the characters in this were literally so amazing. athea, my girl!! she’s so funny and badass and literally just a queen. like everyone bow down to her rn. 🙇♀️🙇♀️she’s stronger than i am bc everything she went through in this was so chaotic lmfaoooo. I’m excited to see her grow more in the next books!!! the ending had me wanting to hug her so badly.
COZEN. mr grumpy who is also so possessive UGH he’s so funny. “nobody fucking touches what is mine” yes sir of course sir whatever you say sir I’m at your mercy sir 🫡 i feel so bad for him though like he deserves the world🥹
YK WHO ALSO DESERVES THE WORLD? ASHER MF DELACROIX!!!! ngl i was wary of him at first but when THAT chapter came in, I WAS SOBBING SO FUCKING HARD. my jaw dropped and i had to process what the hell i had just read. i hope he gets a happy ending in the next books and we get to learn more about him and his past bc OUCH. 🥲🥲
willowww. my favorite witch! the amount of whiplash I got from liking her to hating her to loving her was so funny. she deserves the world.
honestly idk how to feel about ezra but i love how he’s just like there for athea 24/7. it’s very nice of him. but I’m on the other team IFYKYK. 👀i must know more about him and his past though.
the fantasy aspects and the world of this were very well written. it was easy to feel like i was right there in the book with all these characters.
the only tiny flaw i had with this book is the grammatical errors, but they didn’t take away from the story at all so i am keeping the rating at exactly 5 stars. 🥰🥰
ALRIGHT LETS WRAP THIS UP!
this book was excellent. i loved it. i need the second one like yesterday. GO READ IT AND SUPPORT INDIE AND DEBUT AUTHORS!! ok bye bye 🫶🏾🫶🏾
