This book was enjoyable once I got into it but I think getting past the first 50 or so pages was the challenge for me here. I really enjoyed the premise of the book, but it did feel like a lot of set up that didn’t draw me in at first. Once I got into the story though, especially the love aspect, then I was definitely invested. I did really appreciate how unique the premise of this story was, and I thought the magical elements were written well. I also really enjoyed the love story, so overall a good read
