I went into this book a bit blind because I purchased it so long ago and didn’t remember what it was about or what was said about it by other readers. I wasn’t entirely sure if it was fantasy or romance, and had no idea it was YA. That being said, I loved this book. I loved the vibes: candlelit

I still really liked all of the books in here they just didn’t all give me that 5 star feeling. Iron flame just fell short for me and was WAY too long. books like Good Girls Guide and No Exit, I had seen reviews that so many people loved them that I feel like i went in with my expectations too high

💌 POSSIBLE SPOILERS IN THE FAN ART 💌 This series I found to be a beautiful magical world with a unique twist of it being in a modern day world. The story was wholesome and sweet. It was a YA Fantasy, but it didn’t really feel like it was a YA at all. This series has a sweet spot in my heart ♥️
