I'm not sure what to say about this, haha. It was fine? Zinaida and her suitors behaved so oddly that I thought something supernatural was going on versus the obvious "twist". 😆 Very easy to read, but it didn't bring out any emotions in me and so I'll likely forget about it in time. I don't know if this rating is fair, honestly, I just didn't really care for any of the story's elements.

The writing is simple, the story is crazy, and the descriptions of love are unlike anything I have read before.
