Fairly Fiery

While not my ultimate favorite of the 4 Elements series, this drama did snuggle its way into my heart with its loud charm.

The setting of The Fire wasn't as warm as The Earth, as solid as The Water, or as grand and encompassing as The Air, but did provide some unique opportunities for peril, daring rescues, bickering, and making amends.

What it lacked in scale, it made up for with its FLs with serious personality! These two could argue like nobody's business, and I was there for every entertaining minute of it! And when actual kindness/wooing came into play, it was even more hilarious to watch them struggle to play it off/naturally put on the charm.

Yet again, though, I was let down by the way they chose to wrap up years of family conflicts with a pretty bow. As if parental neglect was something to be acknowledged but not truly reflected on, and obsessive love, while unhealthy, required baby gloves and personal sacrifice before they saw the error of their own ways.

But, overall, this was a fairly charming and passionate/tender enemies-to-lovers.

With this final installment to the series, I am left feeling a little sad it's over. Complaints as I did have and nothing managing to match, let alone top The Earth, I really did enjoy myself as a whole. One of the highlights across all the elements definitely being the relationship between the cousins. Twas iconic!
