I'm still not sure about how much i liked this book. I found the writing to be very agreeable to read, and loved being into the mind of Lady Roscille. I also appreciated the added backstory and context. However i was quite surprised by the pacing and the speed at which the events of Macbeth came into play. I think i would have liked to spend more time in the atmosphere before getting straight into the play's plot. Also, i loved the use of witchcraft, but i must say i draw the line with the

dragon prince which kinda felt unnecessary and the romance was...icky

All in one it was a lovely read, and i really enjoyed reading it around a misty lake in the mountains, A+ vibes. Would just have wanted a longer book ultimately
