If this didn’t connect back to ACOTAR then I would have DNF’d half way through out of boredom and frustration, but, alas.

I’ll be honest with you, the first 200 pages, maybe even 400 pages were hard. After re-reading Throne of Glass and ACOTAR so many times, it took me a while to adjust to all of the world building and new characters. The key trait that kept me going though was the murder mystery aspect. I wanted to know who, how and why for the whole situation. The characters took a while to warm up to, but I ended up really liking them. Hunt was my favorite out of the bunch, I enjoyed his thoughts and character growth. The themes of grief and loss were really strong in this one. Sometimes it hit really hard, and others it didn’t. That may be because I was just eh about Danika, but other than that I really enjoyed the personal moments of this book. Yeah the plot is interesting, but the characters are really the highlight of the novel.
Can’t wait to read House of Sky and Breath before House of Flame and Shadow comes out!
