Overall a pretty fun read, but it had its ups and downs. The writing was lovely and I did very much enjoy how Gabe Cole Novoa introduced and developed all of the characters. Dami and Silas were lovely narrators and Marisol was a very welcome addition to their dynamic!
What got me a bit was the plot. It went into a direction I wasn't expecting and the twists got a little too predictable for me. There wasn't a real sense of danger surrounding what was happening to the characters due to the nature of the world-building and just knowing how these stories usually go, so... I was a lot more interesting in Juno and her deals!
Even so, this had some cute romantic moments and a lot of action and tension! I'd recommend it to anyone looking for an adventurous read with queer main characters who enjoys curses and lost treasures.
