This is one of the best books I’ve read. I was hesitant going in because of mixed reviews but I was hooked within the first few chapters. The different POVs from the main characters are done so well! I’d have to say I definitely felt more engaged with the Aranth side of the story but both were amazing.  I can’t wait to read the second one.

Holy. Shit.
So I had mixed feelings through the first half of this book. Some of the choices of characters or the way things were worded bugged me a bit....making me think, yikes I just really can't do YA anymore huh?

And then the second half of the book was BATSHIT crazy. The second half is what made this a 4 star. 
Odessa is not my favorite....like at all. But Lan is cool. Haidee is the best. Arjun is a muthafucking king. 

And I already just ordered book 2. Because I need it.

What a weird world. I enjoyed the swapping of character roles and incomplete info, and was surprised several times at the twists.

I don't actually have a crazy amount of thoughts about this book.

First and foremost, I really liked it! I thought it was unique and had a really interesting magic system - one unlike any other that I've seen in recent fantasy.

I thoroughly enjoyed the audiobook, since each perspective had a different narrator. The full cast was great and it made the story really come alive. It was so helpful to see the timeline come together through the different POVs.

The representation was excellent. It didn't feel forced or unnatural like some books where it almost seems as though the author added it as an after-thought because they felt like they "needed the diversity." No, this one just integrated it the way life actually happens.

I was a little bit confused towards the end, but it could've been that I was just distracted? I'm hoping the sequel helps clear things up for me and brings closure!
