I can’t wait to read the next books. I’m not sure I’ve ever liked an FMC as much, right from the start. Keera is a breath of fresh air.

Maybe I went into this with too high expectations... RTC
Full review: This is probably closer to a 2.5, but I'm rounding up to 3. The first 100 pages of this dragged to the point I almost DNF. I'm not even sure I'm glad I continued honesty.
I did end up liking the main 4 characters who formed a crew to get a job done. There are some really great moments between them all. I even enjoyed the romance.
I respect the messages the author is trying to convey and the critiques it makes at similar fantasy novels, and that was probably the best part of the entire book.
For some reason, the writing style did not work for me at all and that was the hardest part for me to get past. For the type of story it was trying to tell, along with some of my favorite tropes, it really should have been a 5 star read for me. I'm disappointed it wasn't.
Even with the cliffhanger (or big reveal) at the end of the book, which wasn't too surprising, I don't have any motivation to continue on.

I loved everything about this book. I can't wait to get the second and start reading it!

I really enjoyed this book. I really liked the world building and that they explored some of the negative effects of the hero’s actions, especially on the innocents. I called the main twist at the end of this book, and I’m partially curious to keep going to see if my other theories prove to be true. Potential spoiler: this is more theory that they are fated mates or something like that, but it’s hinted at pretty strongly. This isn’t my favorite plot device, but I do appreciate how they slow burned it, and didn’t fall into some of the tropes around this device that really annoy me. I’m optimistic for the next book!
