ARC Reader Book Review 🤍
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶️
General. Laryk. Ashford.
I don’t think I even have to say no more 😮💨
The inspiration being X-Men checked all my boxes. The General representing Charles Xavier, but make him hot(ter?) w/ lushes Lucien locks, collecting his school of Mutants & Fia being Jean Grey “The Phoenix” was so perfect lol! It did give a bit Fourth Wing, but 🌚 I felt it was a bit less predictable. The camaraderie aspect was great, esp w/ Ma (Literally had me bawling) & her best friend Osta. And the twist at the end?! Esprithe be damned 🙀🤍
I’m gonna need Book 2- IIIIIIMMEDIATELY 👏🏽

This book is not for me. The pacing is slow and the characters unlikeable.
I was hoping to rate this higher but the pacing was all over. Some things would be described in detail but other items would never be mentioned. It was challenging staying in the story when 6 weeks passed by so quickly yet I still couldn’t figure out how our main characters got together.

I cannot even start to explain how much I loved reading this book. This world and magic system were a breath of fresh air simply due to the overall uniqueness and captivating world building. Everything was written so beautifully and the tropes played well with one another. It’s not explicitly said but I honestly get chosen-one vibes which one of my top tropes so that was a nice bonus for me. I am super excited to watch it progress through the rest of the trilogy.
This is the poster child for slow burn, and I loved every second of it. The stolen glances, the hot and cold emotions and the eventual spice was all swoon worthy and I desperately wish I could relive it over and over for the first time. The characters had so much depth and so much soul I felt them come alive off the pages. Even platonic interactions between the mains and secondary’s was outstandingly genuine and brought even more depth as the chapters passed.
There was a captivating realness to not only the characters but the class structure and tension that was a direct result. It spoke volumes that even a fantasy world could experience such inner turmoil as the real world. The plot kept this significant for the reader but not overbearing.
