It’s growing on me and more is getting fleshed out and makes more sense.

I don't think that we advanced enough plot wise and I think we should have. Also I am conflicted regarding the love interests. I am not sold when it comes to either of them.

I can’t wait for the next book! There was something about this book that I was holding my breath for but didn’t happen and I think I’d normally rate it 4.5 stars but since it’s all about whole stars on here I’m rounding up not down because it was really everything I needed to be obsessed! I know that if I was an author I’d set my fans up like this, get them invested in book one and have them on edge in book two just to get them to feel the tensions release in book three … or if it’s a longer series book three will just ratchet up the tension HA!
Bottom line - I’m all in - these two books hooked me so fast and the way the chapters bounce between POV had the pace set just right to fly through and never want to put it down!! The sign of a good book (to me) is one I don’t want to stop reading but when I have to stop and do responsibilities all I think about is the story/the future of the characters !

This whole book transpires in 3 days at most lol. I’m not complaining because there’s more Cyrus

Irgendwie mag ich das Buch gerne und habe es als mitreißendes Leseerlebnis empfunden - nichtsdestotrotz haben einige Punkte dasselbe auch gestört. Zunächst möchte ich positiv den schönen, poetischen Schreibstil betonen, der sehr gut zu diesem mysteriösen Fantasysetting passt. Auch das generelle Worldbuilding gefällt mir gut, wenngleich hier das gleiche gilt wie für fast alle anderen Aspekte des Buches: Vibes über Plot. Ich fand beide Erzählperspektiven interessant ausgewählt, auch wenn ich Alizehs lieber gelesen habe als Kamrans. Ich habe mich ja leider schon vor diesem Buch gespoilert, dass es in Band 2 einen anderen Love Interest als zuvor geben wird, joa, so was hasse ich leider bzw. verstehe so eine Entscheidung nicht so ganz. Cyrus ist fur mich ein Aaron Warner 2.0, nur in einem anderen Setting, aber sein Charakter ist eine nette 1:1-Kopie, vielleicht weniger toxisch als Warner. Trotzdem kann die Autorin definitiv Romance schreiben und besonders auch gute Dialoge, aber abgesehen muss die Reihe für mich noch einen Zahn zulegen, wenn sie ein besseres Rating erhalten möchte.
