4.2/5 ⭐️
The witty dialogue in this book will make you fall off your chair! I'm very surprised considering the MC is math obsessed, but I really enjoyed it. It was not perfect, but there was far more that I enjoyed than didn't! I wish it was a series, & I'm sad it doesn't continue because it was really blossoming at the end. Clean romance (only kissing) but also some mature convos on sex & sensual themes. Overall I vote that it's worth a read🙂

so-so

What I liked about The Elf Tangent was that Princess Aldari was very smart, especially in mathematics. It is wonderful to see that in female heroines! The setting was nicely developed and I could sense all the tensions between the races involved in the conflicts. The side characters were all memorable and some were even very funny. Despite all these pluses, I found the overall story to be a little flat. The hook wasn't there for me.
