Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. I found this book a bit difficult to read. Both main characters have an alternating chapter each in the first person and their voices were not different enough so confusing who was speaking. Reading flow was disturbed frequently by very long descriptors, I often had to go back and reread. Sometimes there parts of the book that had normal amount descriptors and this was much more relaxed reading.Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. I was excited about the description: a fantasy LGBT romance adventure - several of my favorite things. However, reading it did not bear out my hopes. Overall, this was a good but not great read.
There were certainly elements that were well done. The author did the cover art and map themself, and it was lovely. The story was decent, though the characters weren't particularly engaging or memorable for me. When interrupted, I found that I wasn't in a hurry to continue. The writing was very nice in places with some beautiful turns of phrase. The world-building was notably good, and the discovery of more about the universe was skillfully paced through the book.
It feels like a first book for the author, though it's not specifically mentioned anywhere. They could really benefit by a good editor and proofreader for their next project. There's definite potential with a few kinks to work out.

There is the perfect amount of conflict in the world and between the protagonists. For the genre, this is spot on. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. A fantasy romance between a regular human and a night fay. I enjoyed the world building and especially Kita the little companion dog. However, I found the story to be structured a bit weird. The actual ending is abrupt and doesn't feel like a satisfying ending. It doesn't hint to more but it also doesn't feel like full "closure". Even the relationship between the two main characters doesn't seem exactly healthy or functional. You are just supposed to believe it will all work out because of love. But that's not realistic, even in a fantasy setting. I'm not sure that I'm satisfied with the level of romance or lust in this story either. I kept thinking there would be more romance instead of repulsion to the animal-like fay. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

The description says the book is a “character-based romance” and I will say that the characters were the reason that I continued reading, since I found the worldbuilding lacking and the plot kind of weak. ( )
