i imagine this book would be much better as a reread.
this was a struggle? i spent so much of the book confused, either from the world building or the magic or the descriptive writing style that failed to explain anything. nothing happens until the last 20% and there was basically no lead up to it. it was just introduced in that 20% and we had that long to resolve. i am still just as confused after finishing the book as i am when i started it. it ends with a. cliffhanger but it's doesn't feel like one at all to me. i don't know if that's bc i don't care about the characters or if my confusion is hindering my understanding of the plot. also, i feel like it took me so long to realize hessa died, even though i had that spoiled for me. only once it was said on page did i even understand that scene.
honestly it was a boring mess and yet i'm still going to read the sequel.
also sorry this review is a mess, i'm writing it while falling asleep... i should come back to it in the morning
So so so amazing! I can see why this is everyone's fan favorite so far!! It reads very quickly because so many things happen that you can't even stop to take a breath. Absolutely fantastic, I can't wait to see what happens next!
