🍂 positives:
- I love all of the characters and how complex they are & the dynamics between them all!
- the world is so interesting & vivid & the magic system is so unbelievably cool & unique
- I love where the storyline is going & how this set up the next book is absolutely *chefs kiss*
- I love how easily digestible this writing style was
🍂 negatives:
- the beginning 1/3 of this book felt a tad info dumpy on Ali’s perspectives,
- the pacing throughout the middle chunk of the book did feel quite slow at times & almost took me out of it here and there

I was fine with only reading one of the books until I got to the very end, now I'll need to read the next entry in the trilogy. I'm not mad it's just a rather cliche trick to pull.
