I went into this book super curious and excited. Although it was advertised solely as a fantasy marriage of convenience, I was not disappointed when met with a book filled with fantastical adventure and mystery. The world-building was great, with its unique magic system and a setting that gave Howl’s Moving Castle X Alice In Wonderland vibes. I was greatly intrigued. The writing completely captivates and immerses you in a scene. While reading you feel as if you are in the MC’s shoes, a fish out of water, trying to survive and make sense of everything. Would do anything to read this again for the first time.

I don't get to see it often but I love a 'similars attract' (?) couple.
Aderyn and Sam are two hard heads that you can't help but root for. Loved their chemistry, the banter and their relationships with others. Their community felt authentic and the side characters weren't one-dimensional.
Now that the compelling side plot has reached it's conclusion, I'm super curious as to what will be next.
