This turned into a new favorite of mine right from the jump! I'm just a little bummed that it isn't even released yet because I'm not ready to leave Esme or Tei🥹 

I loved the storyline and all of the curse clues! I thought they were so clever how everything was so 20/20 in hindsight, but too simple for Tei to ever piece together over the centuries. Mei grew on me super quick, and I loved her relationship with Esme. They were such good friends to each other, and I hope we get more of them in book 2! 

I can't wait to meet Tei's family/court and learn about everything that's happened in the Beyond while he was gone for centuries. I really feel like this is going to be a popular series/book, and it deserves every bit of it! 

Way to go, Ella! Please give me more! 👏🏻🖤
