This book had a good amount of exposition and additional detail. It had many romance tropes, but still kept up the main plot without cheapening the story. There was never a sudden "i just met this person but now I'm madly jealous of someone talking to them," never a romance that upends the purpose of the story. It tried to stay balanced. The romance was heavy: 50% romance, 50% plot. There are a good few unnecessary plottwists/decisions that only added so much. Overall, the book was enjoyable, even if it wasn't revolutionary.
