What I Liked
1) The art style is amazing and really brings the story to life. I've checked out the artists site and I'm definitely buying prints from them. I love how it feels like you're reading a fairy-tale book because of the mix of text and illustrations.

2) If you want to read a romance but not commit to a full book, I feel this novella is perfect to get a satisfying story while remaining short.

3) The creatures in this book are absolutely adorable

What I Disliked
1) The romance was cute but ultimately the story just felt ok. Without the art and unique formatting I think the story would have been lacking.

Overall, if the format of this book intrigues you I would recommend you pick it up and I would read more illustrated books by this author. I also saw they made a colouring book for some scenes on their website and it looks so cute.
