The starlit shadow
by Cidney Mayes
A romantasy that has shades of Romeo and Juliet with rivaling fae houses and human versus fae in a world where the fae have lost their magic.
This book felt clumsy. The introduction to the world, the relationships between characters, the magic system, all of it, just wasn’t well explained or plotted out. The dialogue was simple and lacked nuance. The FMC had access to people and places without much reason for it. The spice was lackluster with weird placement and timing in the book.
An interesting premise, readable, but overall, a clunky read.
