I loved it. I wasn’t sure where it was going at times, but I absolutely loved it.

This world that Bethany has started building is so gorgeous and I am gagging to know more. More about the magic system, how it works, it’s just so delightfully fascinating! 

Not sure if my favourite character is Patches, but, it is possible. We love a hard working and protective good boy. But then I also just loved the relationship between Venus and Janus and how they communicate at different stages through the book. Being a sister is hard and being the older sister is hard so we see you Venus! 

I’ll just be sitting over in the corner hoping there’s a part 2 so we get more Venus and Presley. 😍
