It wasn't hitting. It read like every other fantasy romance just way quicker so there was no build up.

The angst, the magic, the adventure, the descriptions, everything felt so beautiful and real. I cried, I laughed, I gasped.
I could not get enough of Umbriel's moments of bloodthirsty protectiveness of Lyra. I felt my heart tumble over realizing when he fell for her, and I wanted to shake her for not realizing it and being convinced that he didn't care. I loved how loyal she was to Tam and my heart broke over her father's mistreatment of her.
I could read a hundred books about Lyra and Umbriel. Like the book could just be describing the mundane parts of life together, without a single adventure, and I would still eat it up with a spoon.
I think Lucia Laurence is easily a new favorite author.
