This was certainly a fun read, I adored the cheeky narration and I am always a sucker for humor. The love story was decent and I do love me some magical birds:) Still only 3 stars by me because a little change of atmosphere would have done the book good. Some calm breathing space or even a sad little innuendo, just to give the humor and the romance some of its impact back and make the story a little more diverse in tone. That's only my opinion of course, I am sure there are a lot of people who like their sunshiny books unbothered ;)
sehr cozy, süßes Buch! 😊🦜
Generell war das Buch super einfach zu lesen und sehr unterhaltsam. Die Handlung war abwechslungsreich und auch voller spannender Ereignisse, die man nicht erwartet. Auch die Romance war echt cute und das happy End hat die Geschichte mega schön abgeschlossen. 😌 Mein einziger Kritikpunkt ist, dass ich Beth nicht ganz so mochte. Sie ist, natürlich absichtlich, sehr komisch und tollpatschig, was ich persönlich bisschen zu übertrieben dargestellt finde. Auch andere Charaktäre wurden einfach sehr unrealistisch dargestellt, wodurch meiner Meinung nach die emotionale Tiefe nicht sooo wahrgenommen werden konnte. Obwohl also Charakter Development dar war, wurde das voll in den hintergrund gerückt. Das war schade. Sonst echt echt sehr schönes Buch! 🥳🤗
