I am conflicted, i liked some parts and some of the character building was fun but i have various issues
I didnt like the pacing (150 pages of uh oh a curse lets take a train to yours where we fail to do anything effective 30 pages of smut 2 pages of oh look i solved the curse weve been trying to solve thats fun 40 pretty predictable -but also stupid- pages of plot and then a nice 5 pages of smut to finish it off)
I dont feel like the magic system and world was really fleshed out? I dont really understand the rules and boundaries? The three families in england thing? What if your family moved there after?
And it feels odd to me to read queer MM smut written by a woman, like idk?
