i read this physically and with the audiobook and it was amazing. i really don’t know what to rate this one. it’s either a 4.5 or a 5. i loved the magic system a lot and i love the characters especially zélie and amari. don’t even get me started on inan. i don’t know what’s keeping me from rating is 5 stars. on one hand if i think of fantasies i have rated 5 stars, i don’t think it is a 5 then. but also should i compare different books together? also i have a bit of a problem with inan’s character and how he was handled. and on the other hand if you think about it for what it is, a debut YA fantasy novel then it deserves 5 stars. i don’t know i hate having to rate books, trying to fit whole worlds onto a 1-5 rating scale (i’m so close to not rating books at all). the ending and the author’s note made me sob. i’m picking the second book now !!
