The romantasy curse has been broken!! 🤯
Finally a romantasy that I really enjoyed!
A unique and interesting magic system, a gothic setting and a fun, fast-paced plot. I usually struggle with romantasy because the focus on romance means that magic, plot and setting are sacrificed and it’s just filled with smut, but I feel like the author integrated the plot so well and the romance is beginning to feel EARNED. I am intrigued to see how the second book solidifies the couple for me- I’m definitely rooting for our protagonist and primary couple. It was also the perfect level of spice for me personally. Excited to jump into the second one as I’ve been told that it’s best to read this dualogy back to back, and the ending definitely makes me feel like that’s the case!
