Buddy read with my "agreement" squad Ailin and Heather, thanks for the quarantine read girls!

Alright, this has way less sword innuendos than I expected so take from that what you will. It was an enjoyable and cute read, nothing more than that. And the reason for this is that I kept waiting for more to happen, for more development, more drama, more faire shenanigans, more romance (in a romance book? that's weird I know) but it never came... Another point, that was raised in our discussion, is that the book would have benefit greatly from Simon's POV so it was too bad that we didn't get it.

That being said, I did enjoyed what I got. Especially Emily's relationship with her family. I wish the second book was about Emily's sister April, I'd read that.
