The book is clearly supposed to be simple, silly and fun. 

The author doesn’t make a single attempt at believable wordbuilding. All the characters feel like laid back teens playing a role play game to goof around. They didn’t feel like part of the fantasy world at all. 

For example when the king was addressed by a servant he answered with: „yeah sure what’s‘ up?“ 😂

They also have chocolate cake, know about pheromones and field trips and dozens of other things. 

It feels a bit like an Alternative Universe Fanfiction of a show/book series with a sprinkle (or 5) of crack treated seriously, where the writer is just having fun with the characters.

I do like the concept of „what comes after the happy end“ stories (not that is was seriously explored in this story).

🥰 Friends to Lovers

🔮 Fantasy Rom-Com

🧐 Oblivious Mutual Pining 

I’m pretty sure Arek and Matt are the definition of oblivious friends to lovers, throw in some slow burn mutual pining and it’s them. 

I really enjoyed this book, the world-building and setting was written really well.  It almost gave off a contemporary vibe in a fantasy world.  Yes, there was magic and a king but it was easy and fun to read.  These are the kind of fantasy books I want to read more of.

I loved the vibes of this book, the friendships, the chaotic nature of some of the characters, the romance, and the humor.   It was so lovely.
