I read this book in a day and I absolutely adored it. The writing style and the world created felt almost nostalgic to me in some odd way that I cannot put in words. I found the characters lovable even if a few were slightly irritating, and the plot moved at a nice pace. 

The main gripe I had with the book is that there wasn't enough character devolopment. I felt like it was a little more plot driven in that aspect as we don't truly get to discover why the characters needs developed the way they did. I just feel as though there are quite a few questions about the characters and the world that weren't answered. 

Overall a nice read! Definitely enjoyed it!
