This was such a creative delightful story! The magic is very interesting and unique, definitely haven’t read anything like it before. And the characters are all amazing, you get extremely vested with them. Cannot wait to read next two and have some of the open mysteries unraveled.

Interesting world, but wasn't a huge fan of any of the characters. Not a huge fan of the writing style. Likely won't finish the series, but may come back to it later.

Wonderful, unique world-building with a gruesome magic system. My library loan expired in the middle of listening to the audiobook, and I had to wait months for it to be available again, but was able to get right back into it and enjoyed the ending.
