This was upsetting and I loved every bit of it. Not for the faint of heart - check your trigger warnings.

There was a lit to like in this book, but overall I think there were so many concepts and plot crammed in we didn’t get to fully explore the world. The supernatural elements and structure of magic were explained in a superficial sense but I wanted to know much more about the structure of the society as well as charactere motivation. (especially the main character's brother!)
Points for aheartfelt love story and going beyond the usual YA horror tropes!
