Felt borderline steampunk/WWII throughout but in an endearing way. Fun blend of magic and technology. Very sweet love story and beautiful prose. The characters have delightful interactions with one another. Starts sad and ends on a cliff hanger.  Love story progresses wildly fast once it gets started (70% of the way through) but not in a smutty way

The world building was a little too flimsy for me, I know that the focus was supposed to be on the love story but still.
Also, some of their decisions made ZERO sense to me and it made me so upset😭😭
