5.0

 Court of Blood and Bindings by Lisette Marshall is a compelling fantasy romance novel with well-crafted characters, an intricate plot, and a unique magic system. The slow-burning romance between main characters Creon and Emeline is filled with tension and chemistry. The book's plot is layered with intrigue and suspense, balanced with adventure. The magic system is fresh and influences the characters and their world. The sentient labyrinth adds an extra layer of mystery to the narrative. The book is a testament to Marshall's storytelling and world-building skills.
