I want nothing more than to bury myself in the world of this book, I'm so sad this particular adventure is over. I was a little nervous in the beginning, knowing that it was a very hyped up book said to be the perfect cozy fantasy (and also I didn't like Bambleby when he was first introduced), but I'm so relieved and ecstatic to be come out the other end knowing it was absolutely right.

The writing through journaling is so enticing to read, giving it a different voice than many books. I loved the touches of academia throughout it all, and the world of faeries intertwined with ours was so fun to experience. I'm so pleased by how it never felt like there was a lull in the pacing or adventure.

And the romance killed me, I don't know how it was spun so magically to the outcome that it was, but I was internally screaming and sobbing over it at every mention. I'm so excited to read the next book, and just to reread it.
