This was so fun! Uses tropes and elements from many different stories, but sometimes you just need an escape / brain candy book and I immediately wanted to read the rest of the series after finishing this one. I can’t wait to see what happens next!!

The only reason I didn't give this amazing book 5 stars is because it had several scenes of detailed animal death. Most of them were the same scene over & over. Unnecessary.

It’s just mid. You spend the whole time waiting for the MC to finally catch the plot that you realized was gunna hit like 2 hrs before. She’s very woe is me and extremely unlikable.

This book had me feeling all the emotions. From sadness, to anger, to more sadness and to hopefulness, I didn’t want this book to end but at the same time, I needed to know what happened. I understand the hype. This was my first adult fantasy book and it did not disappoint!!
