Without any spoilers. This book engrossed me from the frist chapter! Very mysterious, witch family who own a Italian restaurant. The twin girls who are coming into themselves but with very different personalities and take very different paths. Very dark, which made it all the more intriguing. A lot of twists and turns with a strong female lead. Great dark fantasy!

Al principio me costó un poco engancharme pero después era difícil de dejar Jajaj. 
De las hermanas me gusta más Vittoria peo bueno, el personaje principal es Emilia que no me cae mal pero a veces se porta de forma muy tonta. 
Me gusta que haya misterio y que no sepas a quien culpar de todo jaja, aunque sospechás quien podría ser (y  se confirma, o no, al final 😅).
Wrathe gusta mucho su personaje, está mejor desarrollado que el de Emilia. 
Me dejó con ganas de leer el 2do 😅.

A rather thrilling fantasy novel. The world building had some rather fantastic depths and color to it. It was really easy to see how the author incorporated their personal experience. I really liked how that meshed. Some elements of their story seemed to get muddled at times, and I found myself needing to go back to reread something in order to understand what was happening. Lots of characters, but the author does a good job of keeping them all straight— as well as their alliances and organizations. However, FL seemed to have very little development throughout the story. She made a lot of odd choices, and that really took away from the tension of the story. I liked the chemistry between the FL and the ML tremendously. I hope to see that further developed in the second volume.
