Really enjoying this so far!

Really enjoying this sequel. The whole cast of characters are great and I have no idea what is going to happen next at this point.

This is so cute and cosy!

Why is is this so well-written? I hope SenLinYu writes fully original fiction next.

So good!

I really like this far!

This book is reminding me why I love reading and why I should stop focusing on overhyped books. If you are wanting something like The Hunger Games with a dash of Divine Rivals you will love this. I can’t put it down.

Impressed with how this still feels like Manacled and yet original at the same time. SenLinYu did a really good job of reworking the work and magic system.

I am bored. This feels very long-winded and nothing is happening. Too much history and a weird meeting while the main characters are 12 and already attracted to each other. First disappointing Rebecca Ross book.

This going to be my Kindle read while I am out and about. I don’t mind if it’s stereotypical romantasy for exactly this reason.

Really enjoying this. I don’t know why this isn’t a TikTok trending book. Probably because it has no smut, but still!

I am really enjoying this so far. I just wish the author wasn’t so heavy-handed with gender identity and pronouns. These things can just exist in books without them being explained at multiple points in the story. And if it is part of the premise, it can still be there without the reader feeling like they are being preached to.

This is already really enjoyable and just what I need to break out of the TikTok trope train.

This is amazing. So much fun and pure escapism. Plus there is a talking cat.

Some actual creepy moments…

Ana is a blast. This book is amazing so far.

Oooh this is great so far!

Oooh this is great so far!

Whittling down the backlist tbr this year

Well this book is a journey so far.

This is a lot of fun! Comfy in its familiar YA vibes.

This is so good so far. It reminds of reading Sarah Dessen or Jenn Bennett.
