This was a magical book! It's a beautiful story with such creative, fantastical elements. As a whole.

However, when I look at the parts individually, it has some flaws. I wish the romance just didn't exist. I felt it would've been better to keep a friendship between the love interests. I thought it was stronger as a friendship. After the MCs, who were very dimensional and interesting, everyone else were backdrops. The side characters were one dimensional and so bland.

This issue includes the villain.
