Thank you ti Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

(A year later and I’m finally remembering to review this oops)

I’m always sad to give a low rating to queer book, especially when it’s a fairytale retelling and should be exactly my kind of thing. But unfortunately there wasn’t much that I truly enjoyed about this book. I found it difficult to connect to the characters, the plot couldn’t hold my attention, I didn’t feel any sparks with the romance whatsoever, and just overall I found it to be a very forgettable read. The atmosphere was fantastic, I could picture the forest so clearly from the descriptions, and the magic system was interesting. But other than that this one sadly missed the mark for me.

3.5⭐️

Love the characters, and the plot was good. But I wish there was more world building, especially around the magic system

There wasn’t nearly as much dinosaurs as I was hoping, but there was enough of everything to still earn a 5 star (and plenty of tears) from me

This was so weird and fun, glad I finally picked it up!
