The first half of this book was decidedly rom-com and I was so excited for it. Excellent banter, unique setting, fun characters.
Then we reached the halfway point and I suddenly found myself in an actual fantasy novel? With like, a whole plot? Idk - I wasn’t prepared for it. And I was honestly very frustrated to reach a cliffhanger and find out the next book releases in fall 2024. I guess my fault for not doing more research.
Overall a cute, original book. Just not what I was expecting or wanting in my current mood read!
