Omg my prayers for a soft girl pining harder have actually been answered?? HELL YEAH I LOVE

But I am very scared that the reveal of Seren's identity will cause more unnecessary drama. Owen's very sympathetic rn and I don't want that to change.

Also, purely for my own entertainment, could there be no 100% pure evil villain and this feud between the king and witch just a huge misunderstanding? I would love.

Okay I am enjoying the book greatly again. This change of setting and scenery was unexpected but EXACTLY what was needed and I genuinely have no idea where it'll go from here.

Feeling feelings for both MCs and still hoping for a better resolution than that bs at the fallout. Fingers crossed 🤞

Fine I feel bad for Owen too, but he does need to control his temper. Like yes, you're a 17yo in a very rough spot and I understand your anger at the king, but not Seren, geez

I love the way information is sprinkled out in this book. It isn't too on the nose, but allows theorizing. Who is the king? Is he Seren's 4th brother or something? Whose soul did he eat? I am intrigued... and needing a reconciliation asap.

Oh my god would this boy stop being so over dramatic; she did not *betray* you, she did all of that WAY before you guys even met 🙄🙄

How is he this understanding with Efa for not protecting his sister (as he should) and this unfair with Seren (as he shouldn't)??

Ghh I thought this book above an over dramatic contrived fallout

I guessed the thing with his mom still being around pretty much from the very beginning but that's okay. Wondering if they can actually save her or not though.

The only thing that annoys me a little is the ongoing power imbalance. I'm here waiting for something to happen that evens it out more since pretty much the moment they met....

Ohh why is this so good...
Seren is such a floof I love her. Her chapters are my favorite, I'm curious to see if the style will slowly shift and liven.

THIS is instant attraction done right. It makes so much sense and the way it's written whimsically like a fairytale is so incredible. And the starcrossed vibes are already killing me.

When this inevitably takes a turn for the tragic I will cry.

Okay... OKAY
This is actually really good so far.

I love the writing style and I love the MC, he's giving Ti-Se which is awesome. My interest is piqued.

I'm actually kind of excited to continue this.
