Beautifully written, the reflexion on love throughout the book made me think, feel and hope at the same time.
For a debut novel what a great way to start it.
I juste could not give it a 5 stars because I yelled at those two from the first page. Just stop!
Did not do it for me. I loved the magic aspect with the tea ceremony and I thought the challenges were really creative and showed everything you could do with the tea. I did not enjoy the many layers of politics that revolved around it. I am left at the end of the book with more questions than eher and I don't really appreciate it.
DNFed at 30%
I don't feel like it is accurate for the time it is supposed to be in. The story feels forced just to out in some smut.
The language used in it feels weird, could have used more editing.
I loved this book! At the beginning I thought Lily and all were really toxic for one another but at the end I was crying so badly it was ridiculus. I still believe they are wrong for each other right now, but I like where I think it is going.
I also loved the side carachter so I am really excited about the whole series!

I really liked the narrator's perspective on things at first.
By the end, I was a little disappointed we did not see a netter character arc, I would have loved more than two pages of redemption actions.
3,5⭐️
Not satisfied with the 90% breakup situation
The reunion after it did not feel true at all
The epilogue was not a sufficient closure for me
Not their best work for me

Very good, loved the characters - did not dislike Piper in the beginning.
Not a fan of the miscommunication trope, but it was over pretty quickly.
Really appreciated the boy falls first aspect of it all!
How can it be that I loved this one more than the first one?! I can already feel my soul being split into pieces at the end of this OMG!
This book made me appreciate Lily a lot more, I loved that we followed her journey trough dealing with her addiction. Not that Lo's journey is not important but it is more known to people so I looooove how the authors chose to portrait the situation.
I cannot even believe how those two are made for each other!
Also the found family vibes were incredible.
!!! I can't even
I loved this one so much, it was the perfect sequel. The characters were already introduced and we were able to see them develop. They were much more involved in the multiple mysteries going on wich made sense based on the actions that took place in the first one.
Will recommend this serie till the day I die I think!
This Book was so good! The world building was impeccable. I initially thought it was a low stake fantasy, but not so much. It was a little young at some point, the MFC is only 14 years old so it is normal.
I smiled a lot and I was hungry most of the time reading it.
I was not a fan. As a Type A person myself I was rooting for her to stick to her rules even knowing this was not good for her, so it was really conflicting. I liked some part of it but felt like the ending was rushed and could have been more refined to get more of a happy ending.
Initially gave it a 5 stars, but after consideration, doesn't feel on the same level as the other one.
I cared a lot about the characters individually but not enough as a couple I think.

I don't think this book was sold correctly to me. I did not know it was going to try to be more than smut.
I was on the fence until the real « romance » started.
It did not redeem everything however so 3,5 stars.
This is my first cozy Mystery! I always said and believe I was not a mystery girlie. Wellll I was wrong for this type of subgenre at least. I loved it!
It is witty, funny, entertaining to follow this unlikely group of friends in some difficult situations.
There was just a little thing missing to give it a five stars Rating. I will definitely continue the series!
The ending was too abrupt for my taste. I feel like they deserved a better declaration and settling stage.
The rest was Great!
