Setting is very interesting and mystery elements as well. mlm relationship is rather a subplot and everything just randomly happens, but is very cute.
Grace is the worst.

As usual, the characters are a delight. I loved the family dynamic between Grace and Miles, and Miles’ chemistry with Tristan is off the charts. Overall, a great first entry in the series.

One issue I had with this book was that it kept the reader in the dark about certain things for too long to really have a sense of what to care about. I also felt that the ending was extremely rushed, and I wish that Tristan had had more development. He was absent too often and when he was present, he didn't have much agency in the story, which dampened the romance for me.
That said, this was still a fun, magical story with a cute queer romance, and I'm glad I read it.

As someone interested in WWI, I enjoyed the clear parallels and the interesting new aspects added to the familiar parts.
