It’s been a LONG time since the ending of a book had me saying “are you fucking kidding me” in a good way. This book changed my brain chemistry and I’m so happy I stumbled upon it, it has romance and intrigue and time travel and magic and all the ingredients of a fun time. Admittedly I picked this up not knowing it was the first in a series (sigh) but that made the ending okay because it 100% could’ve just ended with that ambiguity and left us to speculate forever, but luckily there’s more where this came from! I was not ready for it to be over and will absolutely pick the next book up immediately.
