A bit forced at times.
This is upper YA or even NA.

Thinking back there were some flaws of the story, but it was well written with enjoyable characters. The story itself was so tense and interesting. I wish the whole âmurder mysteryâ concept with Lowry didnât exist though; it felt like it threw the main plot idea (of Hal and Wren trying to stop the war) off.
- Wren was a pretty good mc. Not the best but she felt more relatable and realistic. Really liked following her journey.
- Hal was a good love interest too, but I wish the author went more in depth with him
- Una was the most well written character in the story. (Well maybe minus Lowry). All though she made me frustrated, that was the authorâs intention which definitely worked.
One thing I want to add is that this felt like 2 stories combined; this is Alison Saftâs first work though and maybe I just expected a little more after reading her latest work, âA Far Wilder Magicâ

It was fine. I have to say though it felt unedited enough like there was more stuff to be done before publishing. It was entertaining but I also wanted to just be done with it.
