What is the Book About?: The book is about this girl named Evie. She is a bit of a klutz but has a good heart and soul. There are stories of "The Villain" passed throughout the kingdom and their village. No one has seen him, but everyone says he's very old and extremely dangerous, despite the fact no one can seem to remember what he's done... However, what happens when they meet, and he is in need of an assistant?

Review: I really liked the book. The writing was pretty easy to follow, and the characters had good chemistry. I was not expecting the twist at the end. I would say it was a solid book. There is a little language, but that is minimal. I WOULD advise you to take note, however, that while the violence is not in great detail, there is a lot of it. I would say you should search up triggers if that is something you struggle with. You might wish to search up triggers anyways, though. I don't think anything was over-the-top because there were some smaller things that showed up, but they kept it minimal. There were also a lot of characters I loved and think others will love too.

Would I recommend this book?: I would if you like romantasy, and it is pretty easy to follow, even if you don't. However, it is best for romantasy fans who also do not mind comedy.
