dnf'ing (for now?) at 60%. i might pick this back up in the future perhaps?? idk, i was expecting way more vengeance and fantasy compared to the romance aspects that it was giving me. like truly i don't care to know how horny emilia is for wrath constantly lmao
definitely an enjoyable book but it was painfully obvious at some points that we were following the journey of someone who did not at all think critically when making decisions/conclusions about these damn men
this was easy and fun to read and i really ended up loving the characters and the world in the north! i saw (after i was over halfway done w this book) that i should have read caraval first to avoid spoiling things in that series
i really enjoyed this :) it was exactly the cozy cotton candy fantasy i was looking for. excited for what book two has in store!
i really liked this book up until the very end! * spoilers ahead :p * she watches him kill her father, her only loved one left, and then he makes a speech about taking her captive and assaulting her and she's just kind of like... not as mad as i thought she would be? it just seemed kind of weird/insensitive to me that even considering the issues vincent and oraya had been having, she would kind of let raihn back in so quickly. i understand that he felt this was the only way to save her and that he was willing to die instead of her, but i mean that's still... your father?? that you loved?? maybe i'm being too critical but i hope the next book shows that she's a little more upset about the entire situation lol
ahhh i loved this book :') i didn't expect it to be as heavy as it was in some parts but over all it was such a good read :) i love women!! *edit to add: it's been 9 days since i've finished this book and i keep thinking about it and now that i've had time to really digest it, this was definitely a 5 star read! ✨
