The brief mention of aromanticism was a welcome surprise! I'm counting this as Talia Hibbert basically knowing about me. I liked the circumstances of their fake relationship, and I adore how work driven Dani is as a character. I also adored the fact that she was a bisexual black woman, perioddd.

 Read this book if you in a short span of time, wanna find out just how far love can go. 
Featuring:Sapphics breaking the literal foundations of time. 

Sitting down and watching London for centuries because she loved it. Writing letters about owning a dog together. You don't know love until you've read about the shit blue and red did for eachother

This manga was giving "Little Witch Academia" vibes and "Kiki's Delivery Service". Overall just very cute Ghibli vibes! The internal struggles of these characters really hit home (even with it being for a younger audience). Bonus: Qifrey is fine asf

The world-building and magic systems were soooo amazing. Fonda Lee is able to introduce all these aspects while keeping the story interesting. Her characters were imperfect and fit well in this mafia-inspired world

Don't let the rating fool you🫵🏾 I thoroughly enjoyed this and needed the trans rep badlyyyy (in which the rep was good asf). The rating is only low because of the problematic dynamics between
