About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an emotional, time-twisting mystery with light romance and rising tension, similar in mood to My Brilliant Life; Not for you if you prefer fast-paced action or clear-cut answers.

Pros: emotional fantasy romance; tense mystery hooks; believable visuals | Cons: slower second half; not fully detailed; ending may divide
