okay, wow. this was certainly a ride.

i found this book through a comment on a booktube video actually. unorthodox probably but still. it got my attention because i saw the words "and the romance hasn't even begun yet" and i'm a sucker for slow burn romance so here i am.

i actually stopped reading at about 15% of the book because i got bored. so not a strong start for me. it definitely got better

after the party arc where leo gets sent to grimm's hometown.

and then from there, i absolutely loved the whimsical-ness and haunting atmosphere of the

unquiet woods. i loved the adventures we had there and sybilla is a gem and so is jayne. mathias should've been more open-minded like his sister and it's a damn shame he got killed. or at least that's what i think.

and i think the part that surprised me the most was how anticlimactic the

taking-away of the love spell/curse was. love how leo was able to say "no" though 💅
