“[...] If The Princess Bride and The Addams Family had a love child, it would be this book. I was laughing from page one to basically the last page [...] It’s just feet kicking, giggling all-around good time. This is high fantasy and yet it’s cozy high fantasy. It’s a warm hug. It’s a good laugh. [...] I don’t think I’ve ever read anything quite like it. [...] [I]f you’re looking for a good time, if you want to giggle a little bit & swoon, I highly suggest this book.”
“[...] [T]he more I think about this book the more it gives me the warm and fuzzies and total joy and if that's not worth [...] 5 stars I don't know what is ❤️”
“If How to Train Your Dragon had the humor of The Office. Nonstop fun! ”
“This book earned every single star. From the sarcastic FMC to the flabbergasted Villain. [...] To say I did not want to put this down was an understatement! [...] [I] went [...] and pre-ordered the second book [...] immediately after finishing this book.”
“Excellent writing! Great twist at the end. I cannot wait to read more by this author. I wish I could give 6 or 7 stars on a 5 star scale.”
“Laugh out freaking loud funny.”
“I never thought this book would make me this happy. I was laughing throughout at all of their antics. [...] Man, I loved all the eccentric and quirky characters in this book along with the beasts. The story and characters had depth. When the twist hit, my jaw was on the floor. The ending was so unexpected and I’m so glad book 2 is already out. Can’t wait to see the new adventures of The Villain, Evie and their mismatched family.”
“I loved this book! I had to force myself to put it down at times! (Early hours times) I will also be forcing everyone I know to read this book! The grumpy sunshine vibes are immaculate and it’s everything you want all in one!”
“6 FREAKING⭐️ OMG NEW FAVORITE BOOK ALERT [...] I don't think I've ever laughed so much in my life. I was laying down and I had to get up bc I started choking”
“Alright let me just say that this is quite possibly the funniest book I’ve read in a while. The grumpy x sunshine trope is one of my faves (rightly so) and this one just made me FEEL. I went from being giddy to laughing, and then I was shocked and confused. I like being made to feel all the feelings in my fantasy books and it gave me that and so much more. Definitely recommend this one. [...] After that cliffhanger ending I need book 2 please and thank you!”
“The easiest 5 stars I’ve ever given. It was clear from the beginning of the book that this would be 5 stars. [...] I DEVOURED THIS BOOK WHOLEEEE [...] YALL BETTER READ THIS ASAP CUZ YOU MISSING OUT ON THE BEST AND CUTEST GRUMPY X SUNSHINE IVE EVER SEEEEEEEN↕️✨️ Excuse me now, i gotta go find the 2nd book CUZ I DO NOT DESERVE TO BE HANGING.”
