November Wrap Up | 2020

So it just feels very incomplete in a lot of ways and then was just kind of slow and I don't think that I'll I'll out with this series.

And I really liked not only the world and the mythology and everything, but also again character interactions and how characters connect and some of the like betrayal, political machinations, and all of that.

And I really liked both of our characters. There were a little bit of like some miscommunication things, which is typical of any adults contemporary romance, but I really liked both of them and the things that they like went through and just how connected and supportive they are of each other.

But, still for like readability and the best friend dynamic that relationship and this character learning to have an identity outside of her like goals, I give this three stars.

So, with that premise, you end up thinking it's sort of like a One Day in December, which is one of my favorite books, that is a romance book, or just somewhat one of those like misconnection, will they won't they type things.

But, it's just kind of fun and I like the little twists and turns and stuff and is it like perfect? No. But, if you're into just like sort of over the top also like very atmospheric paranormal YA historical, I think you could be into this series.

So I ended up really I loved this. I loved all the discussions again of like relationships and making your mark and art and, you know, what love is and dynamics and, you know, toxic dynamics versus healthy ones and friendship and some mental health stuff in here, too, cuz there's trigger warnings in here for loss of loved ones, suicide, and drug and alcohol use.

So if you were into some like sapphic letter correspondence between people that are enemies in a war, then you'll probably be into like that angsty bit of it, but like the rest of like the plot and like it being a sci-fi didn't really land as much for me. It's That's not what I'll remember. I remember more like the feelings of this.

It's this like desert setting. The magic is so cool. Like it is it is so cool.
