There is some truly delectable description tucked away in here, if you can stomach the present tense (which always throws me off when I see it, but worked well).
Lovingly rendered Polish legends, tenderly worded enemies to lovers, and a stellar ending.
If I had any complaints, it’s the combination of a slow pacing and a difficulty understanding how, exactly, magic actually works in this world — given the way the book works, they’re tied together.
