1.0
Storygraph lied to me. I found this so boring. I disliked the characters, I kind of hated Rowan and thought Rosemary was quite dumb. I found the story progression lacked some logic and common sense. And I was very disturbed by the fact that almost all paragraphs are either one or two sentences long. The only thing that I can give this book is that I did want to know how it ended, however, that was mostly because I was so confused that I couldn't think of any alternative that made sense.

This was fine. For a short book, it felt long. There was a lot of ambiguity throughout and not all questions were answered.
Moderate: Fire/Fire injury and Injury/Injury detail

This was a wonderful read, with an unraveling mystery and a cast of characters that I wanted to know more about (they were never boring and all had unique personalities). The worldbuilding felt complete, I was never left confused on what the author meant.
All the witchcraft details were so artfully woven in. The magic system felt very connected to how past lay healers operated, though of course with an actual bump up in power.
The writing was well thought out, and a good read.
