"Cursed is a delightfully charming fantasy story that brings out all the warm and happy feelings. It focuses on themes of communication, friendship, and healing. The book was enjoyable and easy to read, immersing me in a unique and magical world.

The relationships between both the main characters and the supporting ones were wonderful. The dialogue was engaging, and the characters felt well-rounded and lively. The story and its world were easy to follow, with potential for further development.

On the downside, there's a part that might seem a bit unrealistic—no first-year medical resident is that skilled. Even in a magical setting full of curses and mythical creatures, this took me out of the story. Additionally, the main character handled everything with ease, which was acknowledged in the story, but I would have liked to see more growth in her journey.

Thank you LaManna Books via NetGalley for the opportunity to read this advanced reader copy and provide my honest and authentic thoughts"

"I absolutely loved The Stormborne Vine by Tilly Wallace! It's a cozy fantasy story set in Regency England, and it had everything I was looking for—exciting characters, interesting special interests, dragons, friendship, and a well-built world. I just wish I could jump right into the next book!

The only small thing I noticed was that the chapters changed abruptly, which caught me off guard a few times during intense scenes. I found myself checking to see if I had missed a page.

Thank you to Ribbonwood Press and NetGalley for letting me read this early copy and share my honest thoughts!"
