ooohh i loved this so much. i had started it a couple of months ago, stopped reading it because i had exams and didn't have time to read for fun and i picked it up again a few days ago out of boredom and wanting to read something romantic and queer. so i remembered this lovely peace of literature. and i picked it up right where i left off. and from there it was just smooth sailing. because it was just as fun and funny as it was the way i left it and maybe even more because of the way events unfold after the 50% mark. genuinely such a fun experience, reading this book. hilarious banter, sarcasm at its finest and lovable diverse characters. 

arek just might be my spirit animal, he is so funny. matt is so goat-ed because i said so. matt and arek are just soulmates, end of sentence. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH YOUR HONOUR. and just their group of misfits and outcasts is my second crows and i love my crows.
the writing is so smooth and it gives you such an amazing ease into the fantasy world and its characters. and it was so funny too.

also can we take a moment to say and appreciate how incredible this book and F.T. Lukens is/are because 1) they wrote a romantic book in a fantasy setting (which is one of my favorites to read); 2) they wrote a queer romance and 3) they wrote a queer romance in a romantic book set in a fantasy world. like HOW AMAZING AND COOL IS THAT? very. and id probably need more book recs of this niche genre after this review is done.

in conclusion, i had such a good time reading this incredible book and id like a second one just like it, doesn't matter if its just copy&paste, id still eat it up.
