There is antisemitism in this book but it is addressed as wrong and cruel.

jodieorange's review against another edition

read juniper and thorn this year and it was a 5* read so just wanted to try out her debut book even though from the get go I didn’t like the sound of the plot line and yeah it didn’t really do it for me, I’m really not into romance and especially not true enemies to lovers(?), and to me the romance felt very forced with the main character basically forcing her feelings onto every page, maybe it would’ve been better if we had the male POV too? 

I think if you’re fans of Nina and Matthias from SOC you’ll like this book
