The House Witch and The Enchanting of the Hearth by Delemhach, Emilie Nikota
Did not finish book. Stopped at 79%.
I was struggling for days on end to read one or two chapters and have since not picked it up for three whole weeks, I think I have to just accept the loss.
DNF at 79%.
I've loved and enjoyed a few "cosy fantasies" now, so I was hoping for similar things here of a witch in a fantasy caslte just making some nice food with a sprinkle of romance thrown in.
Instead, this kind of left me feeling like I was watching a long-running anime full of filler. Yes, there can be things happening, and a few isolated funny/interesting moments might occur, but nothing significant can take place that changes the characters or setting enough to disrupt the continuity of the "real plot" when the filler ends. Even the plot that was in here with the different kingdoms and spies/assassains or whatever felt like filler.
There are far too many characters that seemed to disappear and reappear at random, or just kind of stand around doing nothing. And plot threads that in another story would be very serious seemed to have no urgency to them.
It was building to some sort of climax with the main romance at the point I gave up, but I was so bored by it that I no longer care to know what happens.
