I loved that book, the universe is easy to understand, the plot, characters are awesome. This is a good romantasy, I can't wait to read the next book. Hopefully it will be as great as this one. 
The world building is really cute and cozy in its own way. It seems beautiful, at least in my head.
This is a good choice for people coming from romance to fantasy. It's accessible to everybody. Maybe it was a little harder to understand the magic system at first, that might be because I haven't read the Caraval first, but when we start a separate series we either make sure that the magic system is understandable or we explain it a bit better. Anyways it doesn't prevent you from understanding and following the plot.
I had a blast reading it!
