Enjoyable read though, but it was very much a "kinda want to see what happens" vibe that drew me to ordering the next book, not a "I need to know what happens NOW".

I did like the action scenes and felt they had nice pacing and were detailed enough to be understood but not too detailed that they dragged on.
This is compared to The Hunger Games (and I understand why) but I would probably compare it more to The Cruel Prince and the later books of ACOTAR. The plot points were almost exactly like The Cruel Prince but with less developed enemies to lovers. I don't think the political strife or intrigue is enough to accurately compare it to The Hunger Games.

This book was awesome. Like TRULY awesome. I recommend it to EVERYONE who loves romantasy (just as much as me).
This is one of these few books you read, that seem like they change the way you see the world.

“This was the stare of a creature who understood she was confronting death itself, and still chose to spit in its face.“
Badass FL! This story felt unique and captivating. I love the description of the world and the role all the characters have to play in the movement of it. I felt captivated from the very beginning. I loved how each character developed as the book progressed. The pacing was great! It gave enough time for things to unfold exactly how they should. It didn’t feel rushed to me. THIS IS QUALITY STUFF!
THAT TWIST ALMOST BROKE MY SPINE! I had vertigo the last 100 pages 🫨! I finished and stared at the wall for at least 10 minutes. The only thing I took points off for was the fact that I wanted to hear more about the build up behind the scenes with Vincent. I felt like that would have been the cherry on top! It would have set the stage for…. Anyways I loved it and I’m running to the next book 🏃🏾♀️💨.
