I really really enjoyed reading this one. Absolutely lovable characters and now I'm dying to see where they end up in the next book.

"perhaps it was dramatic to compare love to an injury, but that's how this felt. like something that needed to be mended."

why was this book so good in the first half, and so disappointing in the second?

at first, i was really pulled into the story, the universe, and the characters. but as i kept on reading, i couldn't help but noticing just how insufferable the mc was. he drove me crazy with how entitled and prejudiced and pompous he was. such a character could be interesting if they were to grow throughout the story, but this one didn't. he kept on being obtuse and opinionated at the expense of the other characters, who didn't have any backbone at all (come on grimm, wake up and stand for yourself).

this book could have been a five stars read, but it wasn't, and i'm actually so sad about it :(

I didn't realize the sequel isn't out before I got completely enamored with this world. Enough foreshadowing to keep my brain spinning up possibilities, but the actual plot finished enough not to feel like I'm missing the best bits of a good story by the end. Characters you want to knock some sense into, whose lack of sense tracks with their characterization. A real joy.
