Helemaal meegezogen in het verhaal, een boek om in te ontsnappen

the beginning-middle was lackluster but the ending caught my attention…. i didn’t see it coming that vince was actually red and a shadow this whole time

Some aspects not fully fleshed out and I didn’t connect with the writing style but very enjoyable concept and overall story.

I enjoyed reading this book a lot more than I’d expected. Initially, I’d assumed it to be like most YA Fantasy novels as the characters and writing seemed very much like that.
It took me a while to get into the story, the pacing initially wasn't the best. The plot line felt quite interesting though and shadow magic, the world building, the feels, it all felt like a nice blast from the past.
Can’t wait for the next book in the series to be released.

oh i couldn’t stand this, all the way through. i’m sure it’s more suited for people who like that specific brand of dense books (i presume) but for me, it was just one bad scene after another. i didn’t like the characters, didn’t care for the plot; the only thing that remotely interested me was the romance, and even that was barely just that. the “plot twist” (if you can call it that) was awfully predictable, and just- the whole book was so boring. god.
thank you to netgalley for the arc, etc.
