This was a really cute queer romantasy read.
I thought it established character dynamics very well. Had well placed, non-info dump world building. The characters were interesting and felt unique. Relationships felt realistic. On top of all of the side characters were interesting and stood out. I really liked how this felt like an older story in some aspects too. Overall it was simple and fun.
However some aspects were lacking. I wish the plot had a bit more happening and the romance had a bit more time to grow. Some plot twist lacked some punch, but weren’t awful. It also had a bit of a problem with telling over showing. Aside from that my only major note is: Don’t use lamp oil as lubricant for the love of god.
It was a nice read and I recommend it to anyone that’s looking for a simple, fun story.
