Good Deeds and Their Magical Punishments by Hannah Nicole Maehrer - 2.5 stars, had good potential, but the characters mainly talked off page and then had sex
i think its just overall hard to convince me of a whole romance in like 20-30 pages, plus add fantasy world building

Slay the Princess, Save the Dragon by A. C. Wise - feels pretty out of place as it's basically a YA contemporary, rushed hate to love, but add a dragon in the background

Until December by Kelly Andrew - 2.75 stars? Unsure. Academic rivals is hard for me because i need to believe they hate each other but will eventually get there. i think i just dont like obsession as the main part of attraction, which most academic rivals to lovers relies on.

The Fall Guy - 3 stars; the voice was enjoyable sometimes, other times it got in the way of understanding. I appreciated the colonialism discussion tho
