I would like to be as mysterious, wise and hungry as she is.

Some of the writing was beautiful and poetic but overall it felt clunky, word choice interrupted the flow and the atmosphere of the book. Also the story and the romance vibes both felt so random. Almost no character development and light on the relationship and world building.
