SO SO SO GOOD it’s just such a great book!
-super interesting story
-characters with a good depth
-fast paced
-stand-alone
it’s just so interesting! the more you advance the more you get hooked! it’s from the povs of the 3 ladies that are dating this same dude and they’re all so different but you find yourself relating with all of them in some way
overall it’s just such a great book and i need all of you to go read it!!

I cannot believe I'm done with his magnificent series! that truly was an adventure! from the gilded streets of Paris to the magical waters of venice..we really did come a long way! I'm gonna miss these characters SO MUCH! that ending was a bit bittersweet tbh...I love them so much..found family really is the best trope
SO GOOD! WORTH THE READ!
I hate how zofia, Enrique and hypnos never see laila again..and vice versa..i hate how severin had to see them all grow up and die..ahh but I love it too..i love how they all grew so much as characters, how they came to understand themselves and each other so much..severin's character growth>>>> and the fact that he adopted those boys :(((

A TRUE GEM!
this is literally the best book I have read this year! i cannot even put into words how good this is..it takes you through this breathtaking adventure, and you are on the edge of your seat the whole time! especially by the ending, I lost all my control..i felt every single emotion ever and wow..it truly is a roller coaster. throughout the whole book, i felt really sad seeing how much the characters have changed from the first book..but don't worry its not all a bad change..just a sad one. BUT ALSO i loved this book more than the first one cause now i actually know these chatcaters and i really feel whater they're feeling and i care for them so much. as you may have guessed from this rushy review, i just finished it today and i am still in awe. all i wanna say is, roshani chokshi you're a genius.
wtf was that ending??? what is he gonna do now??? and you know what..i always knew that ruslan dude was shitty..like no one is that good, especially in their world..I'm really curious.. i hope they don't hate severin for long.. ahh severin..what all are you gonna do..? LOVE LAILA so proud of zofia and enrique..also, i lost it every single time enrique said our severin and the last scene where saverin tells to hypon "i protect you" ahhh sobbing fr AND ALSO what was the whole purpose or need for delphine's death??! like it was not necessary at all..not really...
someone give all of them a huge hug

how do i even start..to say it simply, it’s a masterpiece! this is one of the most talented authors i’ve ever seen..her skill and intelligence is so evident in the pages that you can’t help but admire..the characters are their own entities and work well alone and together..super cool plot..i’ve got to say for me, personally, it was kinda slow at times because there are a lot of descriptions but it’s so beautifully described that you feel you are part of that world completely
anyway to conclude, HIGHLY RECOMMEND 4.75⭐️
-found family
-heist
-angsty romance

really cute book!! side characters annoyed me soemtimes but the main two🫶🏼
there’s nothing lacking in it but i didn’t feel connected to the whole thing
i also wish there was a bit more because some things felt unresolved

I was frustated! Kinda cringy writing, tried to like her friend but couldn't really, Adam was nice, I wanted to beat up Olive at some points (I mean how oblivious can you be?), TOM can go fuck himself!!! and if you're going into this thinking it's spicy, it's a 🌶
but if you're just looking to pass time reading something cute ig you might like it

Such a good book!! Really deserves way more hype! If you like Emily Henry, you'll like this one. Good writing, humane characters, and overall a good pacing of the pilot. It keeps you interested throughout. Child of beach read and people we meet on vacation. But seriously though, i really recommend it!
