3.0

Hype train went right by me. I do love me a slow burn romance, and the world was interesting. Yet, I didn't connect with MC and felt it leaned hard into "not like other girls" territory. And, I f lt many decisions were more for plot progression than character trait. Im sure there's more character growth in later books, but felt pretty shallow for a first book

unsurprising that i didn't love this smutty uncomplicated fantasy, however i was definitely entertained and honestly i'll read the next book because it took so little brainpower to read
