Thank you to Moira Quirk for her fantastic narration, I'll never stop saying that she elevates everything she reads. I am pretty sure seeing that she narrated this is why I added it to my TBR in the first place.
Audio aside, this was a nice, refreshing time-loopy fantasy. As much as I love romances, and there's one simmering around the story here, it was a fun change of pace to read something that was a bit more focused on world building and plot. It reminded me a little of how I felt reading The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, but without the characters all being kind of gross and bad and with more alternate reality supernatural shenanigans.
