I really enjoyed this book, but it was so slow to start and when it did pick up everything happened too fast. The best review I can give is just to say that this story felt rushed, like it could’ve and should’ve been more.

Leider überhaupt nicht meins. Vom Schreibstil bis hin zur Story (die ich teilweise nicht nachvollziehen konnte)...

La verdad es que es el primer libro que leo de V.E. Schwab y no tengo quejas.
Me gustó que es auto conclusivo, los elementos mágicos de la historia sin duda están hechos a la perfección. El hecho de que es juvenil, wow. No es algo que se ve frecuentemente en este género.

Debo admitir que en un inicio sentí la historia de Olivia un poco lenta, pero en realidad una vez que le agarre el ritmo al estilo de Victoria, no tuve problemas para picarme y desear con ansias comprender que estaba sucediendo. Y vaya que tuvo unos muy buenos giros que no esperaba.

I technically read this today since it was 2 am but it was quite an interesting story, out of the normal standard fantasy books. I liked it.
