This started as a 5 star read for me but love interests took the centre stage for the second half at the expense of herself and other relationships and that's just not something I want to read about. This was supposed to be a fantastical escape novel. The author quickly shoe horned in a happy ending in a way I really liked but if she was going to do that she needed a full third act to bring me round to loving the story again.
Overall, I'm glad I read it and the author's note at the end sent me down a research rabbit hole which was highly entertaining as well!
