Review:
We are once again shown the mortality of our heroine. Chise wants to
help a sidhe, and she decides to make a risky concoction to help her
and the man she's loved from afar. It's a really sweet plot, but we
see the consequences for Chise.
I really like seeing Chise and Elias' relationship here. While we
don't get a lot of development in this volume, we do get bits and
pieces of them working together and trying to understand each other.
We get to meet a few new creatures, and we get to see the beginnings
of Yule, which should lead to something, I'm sure. In the middle of
the volume, we also got to see Silky's backstory. I wasn't expecting
this, but I really like her, and it was nice to see how she came upon
Elias and Chise, and how attached she is. It's sweet.
This was a slow and sweet volume. There's always a bit of quirkiness
to these volumes, but this one was a bit slow in plot progression.
Still enjoying it, though.
