The love story element is adorable, deep, romantic, and tender. No smut, which I prefer. I hope in book 2, we learn more about the suspicious behavior of Hazel’s fiancée. Though he is egotistical and condescending, i think he has more depth (albeit cruel and selfish) to offer to the story.
I actually appreciated Dr. Beecham’s logic, though sociopathic and detached.
The characters are socio-economically diverse; we’re introduced to the daily struggle of the poor, the injustices they face, the lack of social safety nets, and how “invisible” they are to the wealthy elite. In contrast, the elite live in large homes. Hazel herslef lives in a castle with servants, horses, a guest house, a carriage, etc.
I’m looking forward to reading book 2 Immortality from my library (currently on hold 😭).
