If the wren users in spring... so they have a new one every year? I mean because the two godlings / warlocks have been alove 500 years and we haven't missed a spring. As there are some holes in the lore. 2. If they are Holly King and Oak King ... umm how are they also warlocks? I have so many questions!...more

I can't say it made me rethink anything... I always knew Jezebel was a badass! Women were constantly painted with one brush stroke in the bible.... always the problem. The men are always just sitting there doing nothing, innocent sweet little lambs.
Jezebel was just a queen who knew what she wanted from birth. She tried to be good, but well, sometimes you have to be the evil queen.
Let history paint you the way it chooses even if it isn't close to the truth....more
So many red flags! I love all of Mariana Zapata's other books.

I thought oh it is gonna be a light-hearted contemporary romance. Fine. It was not! It was so much more than that.
It was an ode to womanhood in a world that had barely changed.
I loved Elizabeth Zoot from her top knot to her sensible shoes.
I loved Calvin Evans and his crazy yet sensible lovable self.
I loved 630! Smartest dog on the planet!
Loved Mads! Because she was her fathers daughter.
This story spoke to me on so many levels. It spoke to me as a daughter who tragically lost a father that she would never get to know.
It spoke to me as a daughter of a single mom who is in medicine and who taught me to read and write before I was 5. Brought up so many memories when it was just me and her and allll my dogs. There were many!
It spoke to me now as a single mom by choice ( since I had such an awesome mom...it was a no-brainer, I could do this on my own with my eyes closed. )
This book hit home on so many societal norms that are still prevalent that should no longer exsist.
