Okay, Who Was It?
Sweet and Spiced editions
Thryn Knox
Local town witch, Ophelia (Phee for short), is annoyed to be woken by her wards in the middle of the night. The disruptor? A naked demon that she certainly didn’t summon. Somehow, let’s blame her half awake brain, she agrees to help this demon, Prince Gaap, find the summoner and a reluctant friendship (and more) begins.
Okay, Who Was It? has everything I love in a story. Reluctant friends to lovers, cosy cottagecore vibes, magic, mystery, whimsy, and a sunshine x grumpy romance.
Thryn Knox made the unique decision to publish two editions of this book: the standard, cosy fade-to-black romance and the spicy version, featuring several heated scenes. I personally LOVE this choice, because it takes a niche novella and makes it appealing to two separate audiences.
The standard edition is hilarious, heartwarming, and all around cosy vibes. The romance is young, but sweet; the pair bashful and adorable. Absolutely recommend.
The spicy version… well, let’s just say that Phee has a darker side to her, and Gaap worships the ground she walks on. The spicy scenes are expertly written; as someone who’s very picky about spice I actually really enjoyed this version.
All in all, this was a really enjoyable read and one I’ll likely pick up again as a comfort book. And as for which version I would recommend, sweet or spicy?
Both. Both is good.
