First of all I liked the book quite a lot but there were some parts that I didn't like that much.
I still think the idea was really good and both Jainan and Kiem were so sweet. I liked the slow Burn romance and that it wasn't too present in the book. I just wished them telling each other that they like each other (at least sort of) would have been a bit later.
In the middle of the book there was a big down for me. And I could read further. And for one second I thought I gonna dnf this book because I was so unmotivated. Well I'm glad that it was only for a second because it got better again.
Also the first time we meet one of the "bad" people I knew the person will be the bad person. That was kind of sad but maybe that was just me being a hobby writer and me thinking about the possibility ways to continue the story. (Just me? Okay 🤣)
I really liked the writing style and I think I would read an other book by the author should the author publish an other book.
