    This was stunning, gorgeous, beautiful. I love love. You're my harmony 😭😭

    I would class this as a fantastical romance? I don't know what others think? I wouldn't call it romantasy, because it's mostly set in the real world. And at its heart this book is about (romantic) love, and also found family. Ugh the found family in here hits so hard.

    I loved the Spanish in here as well. You can tell it was written by a bilingual person, because none of it felt forced.

    Highly recommend the audiobook! Both narrators are amazing. Though, I'm also definitely going to look up the drawings!

    So happy you liked it! It's honestly one of my favourites of the year so far! I need more fantastical romances like this. 🥹
