However the addition of magic and history and plot twists were too many and muddled the story. Too many lines that kind of lead nowhere.
I loved the sapphic, black romances and our main character staying true to herself and her people- Sophia is a strong lead and I wish I could read more about her and her love interest after the story was over.
Kalynn is such an amazing author and building a world or a scene I'm excited for her other works. She's so good at writing gore and haunting moments!

Moderate: Cursing
Minor: Child death and Animal death
There is some minor cursing throughout the book, violence is mentioned a lot, there are a few parts that contain child death or animal death. There is a lot of sexism directed towards females in the book as well.moka's review
