There is a almost poetic and immersive feel to the writing of the book, the descriptions that are provided and the amount of detail that some aspects of it. Overwhelming at times, but it paints a vivid picture of the world and what it going on. The characters are well developed, growing as the story progresses and the mystery unfolds. It plucks at your emotions, drawing you in and making you are. It is also dark and heavy at times, Mina and the Witch's struggles very real.
It is, though, a very enjoyable and engrossing book. I was hooked from the first chapter, pulled into the world and wanting to know what would happen, and how it would all end. The pain that they'd been through, the secrets that they held - how would that shape them in the end? Sure, it has those fairy tale trappings there - it advertised as such, but it takes them and makes them its own. And I was definitely satisfied with how it ended.

The characters were cool, specially The Witch. Mina sometimes got on my nerves and I was like "dude please tell your father how bad of a father he is" but it never happened, so that kind of dissapointed me. But aside from that, I liked her courage a lot, specially when she was dealing with The Witch.
Also there's this line The Witch says which I absolutely ADORED, I don't even remember when it happened. I think they were talking about their deal and the witch asked Mina if she was mantaining her part of it and since Mina said yes, the witch replaid "Then my evenings are yours".
I was like 😍 what a beautiful thing to say. Also I'm a orchestra player myself, and when the author mentioned The Witch playing the viola (which is also the instrument I play) I was in complete shock! Normally people always uses violins or pianos, but viola? I was surprised! Loved that ❤️
Anyways, the plot was very interesting, so catchy. And Mina and The Witch had an amazing chemistry and love for each other.
Definitely be buying the special version also waiting for future sapphic books of this author ❤️

It’s perfect for the Autumn season - a gothic witchy read with lots of descriptive scene building to really develop the atmosphere. It has slow burn romance - hesitant enemies to reluctant friendship to tentative lovers to love and it was lovely to see this develop.
It seems to have a lot of aspects from traditional fairy tales thrown in there, but for the most part we had fun trying to work out what was happening and what the witch’s secret was.
The reveal let it down slightly, and the ending seemed to be forced to make a happy ending. Which was ok, but after such a dramatic build up, I was a bit disappointed.
I would definitely recommend reading it and forming your own opinion - reading is highly subjective and I'm confident that a three-four star read for me can easily be a five star read for others!
