The Springfest Sprint

The aspect that I liked the most in this novella was the connection with nature and how the faeries had elemental magic. Even the shorts made of leaves was charming.
The sprint/games I found very interesting and entertaining. Particularly, how much everyone was invested in the sprint for good or twisted reasons. And I liked how the race ended for Ember.
Additionally I liked the contrast in the characteristics of the two main characters, like their wings, and their juxtaposition.
Everything felt too intense and meaningful at first, and then I remember that they don't know each other at all. So that kind of made the story fall apart a little bit.
Also I would've like some warning for polyamorous since it's not my cup of tea but I'm letting it slide this once since over all I liked the story. Aparently there is a mantion of this here on goodreads but not in netgalley.
