DestDest | Nov 28, 2023 |   I wanted more of Seyru and Gen, I felt such a disconnect in this sequel. (  ) Enid007 | Nov 10, 2023 |  ) Stefuto | Oct 31, 2023 | I so adored 6CC but the sequel didn't live up to the first. Part of the issue lies squarely in the first third i.e. the Dragons arc. It was too long and fell very flat. I had no sense of danger which was strange. The story picked up by half and finished strongly thankfully. (  ) DramPan | Sep 6, 2023 | This duology genuinely felt like a fairytale fantasy and I just adored it so much. I do wish we had gotten more of seryu in this book but I understand why we didn’t (he’s still one of my favourite characters though). I really loved how shiori has these bonds with literally everyone and how they come out in these stories. Although takkan really just stole my heart, there could be no better match for her. He is so sweet and just really dreamy and adorable. SPOILER: I also love how it didn’t end with everything being alright even after she got seriously hurt, but the way they fixed it by using the legend of Imurinya and her going to the moon for two seasons just totally gives you the fairytale feels. I will probably be thinking about this duology for a while… (  ) Liesl. | Jul 15, 2023 | geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

I didn’t enjoy the first book, but I thought the sequel would be more interesting because hello, an underwater kingdom with a dragon prince??? Sign me up! But the matter-of-fact, telling instead of showing writing style didn’t change. Shiori just feels like a blank slate or a generic character to me. Seryu and her don’t act like friends to me either.
The covers for this series are startingly beautiful, but I wished I could’ve enjoyed the series more.
