I was slumping while reading so I did read a bit slow for me. But I had a hard time getting into this book and really connecting with the characters. It's second-chance romance, which I typically really enjoy but this one was just ok. I've heard the second book is a lot better?

I didn't really understand the world building, or like why there was a college with witches and the MC is a witch but she like doesn't really know what she's doing. I know that getting stronger powers is kinda part of the storyline, but it felt a bit flimsy to me.

Also WHY did the narrator NOT USE AN ACCENT. It's one thing to have one narrator for dual POV (ugh), but HE'S WELSH! AT LEAST DO AN ACCENT! MISSED OPPORTUNITY!!!!

3/5 🌶️

This book was meant to be fun and silly, and I think it achieved that. However, I feel that in mixing romance and witchcraft, neither really got the chance to blossom, leaving a bit to be desired from both plots. The characters were a bit flat, as was the humour. But the sex scenes were fun, and the magic was entertaining, albeit a bit convenient at times. All in all it was a fun Halloween read, imperfect as it was.

Cute witchy romance, romance a bit unrealistic though. Kept falling asleep listening to it and the narrative wasn't great. The narrator kept using an Irish accent instead of a Welsh one!

What a fun little witchy romance! Though the plot was fairly superficial, I thought this was a fun book to get you in the mood for spooky season.
