one of the best books I've read in months

I'm literally sobbing this book is SO SO SO SO SO SO SO BEAUTIFUL omgggg

The plot is amazing. It's fast paced all the way through with perfect twists. I could never predict but it was in the best way.

The leading characters are amazing and relatable I loved them soooo much. The writing is GORGEOUS and there's this dark vibe that is so intoxicating and riveting. The grief and the magic really give this story a presence and sets a scene. I'm overwhelmed. Crying. Beautiful. Love and hope. Amazing ending.

10000% you should read it and I'll probably also buy the paperback. This is what fiction should be

I really enjoyed this. I was expecting the story to be more dark but I found that I really liked the pace and the plot. I also really liked that the there was no insta-lust or insta-attraction mainly because of what Gustavo was going through from the start of the book. I was really surprised that there were fae elements in the story but I enjoyed those scenes the most.

This was a great story of loss and love, I just think some parts in the middle dragged a little bit.
