Feel like that pretty accurately describes Mische and Asar's relationship lol. The slow burn on them was good. I liked Mische as a character. The world itself was cool (underworld/magical prison) and the cast of characters kept it interesting. (Loved Luce and Esme!)

It lost me a bit on the journey. The pacing felt slow and it kind of drag on at parts. Curious to see where the next one goes.
