Reviewed by CherrySoviel Spannung und Intrige, ich fand es magisch und es hat mich gefesselt bis zum schluss.
Reviewed by samich hab die story geliebt und at some point auch richtig weggesnackt ich dachte echt lange dass es ein 5 star read werden wird allerdings hat mir im endeffekt die verteilung nicht so gut gefallen und ich hatte doch einiges auszusetzen und das ende war ein bisschen enttäuschend aber immer noch ein sehr gutes buch und ich hab luella absolut geliebt!!

Reviewed by JenniferRating: 3 stars ⭐⭐⭐ <i>A Deal with the Elf King</i> is my first book by Elise Kova. I decided to read it because it’s going to be released in German soon, and I wanted to review it before that. (I’m German, but I mostly read books in English.) The plot intrigued me—can there ever be too many elf books with a slow-burn romance?
