This fantasy book does nothing that has not been done before. I bought it because the cover was beautiful. I did enjoy the world. She kind of touched on the magic system a bit, I am hoping there will be more in the next book. What I really did like was 1) the horse, he was cool. and 2) the friendships, they were supportive and kind and had a lot of fun back and forth. I also liked that although Rhya, the MFC was not a fighter, she did have some skills and she was brave, and did not just cower down. I am looking forward to book 2 I hope we get more of the magic and how it works and more of King Soren.

I did not enjoy this book as much as I had thought I would. The storyline didn't feel very original and some things were very predictable. The fact that she is a Wind Weaver is in this book secondary to her relationship issues.
I do have to say that I absolutely loved the side characters. They had me laughing out loud a few times and some of them stole a tiny piece of my heart. Rhya and Penn on the other hand, they annoyed me so much.Especially Penn, who kept switching his personality from "I'm a distant grumpy guy who dislikes you" to "I can't live without you". I don't mind that at the start of the book, but it just kept going. There was almost no character development. I was just reading and thinking, please, just make up your mind and stop being a d*ck to Rhya!
Last but not least, the last 40 pages of the book felt a bit like it came out of nowhere and then ended way too quickly. It was anticlimactic and I was honestly disappointed. Finally something big started to happen, and then it ended too soon.
All in all, this book was kind of entertaining and disappointing at the same time. I'm not sure if I'll give the next book in this series a shot.

I had such a fun time with this! I've always loved elemental magic and there's not many books featuring it anymore so this was great. I loved all the characters, especially Rhya! The found family vibes were so so good too.
The pacing was pretty slow but I quite liked it because it meant there was a huge focus on the characters and world building. Things picked up towards the end and I flew through the last 100 pages.
so so excited for the next book!

Everything I could want in a romantasy. Slow burn (& I mean very slow), elemental magic, fantastical creatures, a prophecy, soul ties. Maybe a love triangle??
I loved our main character and our main mmc. The tension and yearning was so good. He's so broody and she's so witty. The side characters were really well developed. 500 pages and it felt like sooo much happened. I can't wait for the 2nd book.

This book was boring for me for awhile and finally starting picking up. I really liked the end and I think the next book will be really good so it was worth the read. I think this series has a lot of potential.

The beginning was weird, why was Penn so aggressive with Rhya if he knew who she is?
This book was a quick read and it was an interesting story. Is it bad that I'm more interested in Soren than Penn?
