A FAR WILDER MAGIC is one of phenomenal. Looking for slow-burn stories? This book belongs to YOU. I am excited to read this since EVERYONE said the story was good, and I am curious to read something in fantasy and romance mixed genre.

(BLURB) When Margaret Welty spots the legendary hala, the last living mythical creature, she knows the Halfmoon Hunt will soon follow. Whoever is able to kill the hala will earn fame and riches, and unlock an ancient magical secret. If Margaret wins the hunt, it may finally bring her mother home.

WelI, I still give this three points seventy-five stars since I love the whole of the atmosphere that the authors give to us, and the author writes so beautifully. I mean, it's a simple thing but makes me feel comfortable understanding the plots. I expect it will focus on their relationship when they were looking for Hala, I mean when they were on it. But, it only appeared in the last chapter. Like, Bruh, that's all? I guess it will be more complicated in that situation. But, it was not. I think it is more focused on their relationship before finding the Hala, it feels like only the process.
I am also shocked by the problem-solving between the female character and her mother, Like? The first time, I saw something difficult to understand-situation, etc. But, it ended up like that? I wish there were more stories between them, like how the relationship went well until the end, how both of them tried to make it better or at least in the end besides they chose different paths, they left it with good feelings. It feels like there's something more... to know... about them, something like we need more explanations.
The thing I love is the relationship between female and male characters, both typically partners who support each other. I love how the female character in the end can decide what she wants and get out of her comfort place, and she also can find something that she wants to follow, believe, and trust. She FINALLY can be in peace. And for a male character, I UNDERSTAND WHY people call him a gentleman.
In the end, I still love it! This the book that I am looking for! <3
