Really enjoyed this book and am looking forward to reading the next book. I found the world building in this book some of the best I have read. The characters were interesting and the story was very engaging.

4.5/5 this was great! In a world of YA fantasy books that all seem fairly formulaic and rotate out the same few tropes, this felt really fresh and unique. The writing was great, the world and the characters were compelling, and the themes were on point.
