The premise of this story fascinated me. How the spell works is unclear until Auri takes her first "action" within the spell, which happens about halfway through the book. Then it becomes VERY clear how it works, and it's dreadful and fascinating. (The author includes content warnings about this, and they are spot-on. I found the content okay for me, because the context it happens in sort of reduced the horror of it; but be sure to read her warnings.) In addition, after disappearing so suddenly, the first chapter becomes relevant again, and I was hooked by wondering how the events in the spell would affect the outside world.
I loved the romance but I did think the first half of the book, where Auri and Nixus get to know each other, went on a little longer than I needed. They fall for each other pretty quickly, which left a long amount of time for them to be keeping themselves apart from each other. The conflict keeping them apart was often misunderstandings about what the other was thinking, and some of the arguments they had didn't feel necessary to me.
The way the plot works out gets more complicated toward the end, and I loved how additional characters are drawn into it, and mysteries unfold, but I also felt like I'd need to read it a second time to understand it. (I think it all made sense?)… (mais)
