This whole book transpires in 3 days at most lol. I’m not complaining because there’s more Cyrus

Irgendwie mag ich das Buch gerne und habe es als mitreißendes Leseerlebnis empfunden - nichtsdestotrotz haben einige Punkte dasselbe auch gestört. Zunächst möchte ich positiv den schönen, poetischen Schreibstil betonen, der sehr gut zu diesem mysteriösen Fantasysetting passt. Auch das generelle Worldbuilding gefällt mir gut, wenngleich hier das gleiche gilt wie für fast alle anderen Aspekte des Buches: Vibes über Plot. Ich fand beide Erzählperspektiven interessant ausgewählt, auch wenn ich Alizehs lieber gelesen habe als Kamrans. Ich habe mich ja leider schon vor diesem Buch gespoilert, dass es in Band 2 einen anderen Love Interest als zuvor geben wird, joa, so was hasse ich leider bzw. verstehe so eine Entscheidung nicht so ganz. Cyrus ist fur mich ein Aaron Warner 2.0, nur in einem anderen Setting, aber sein Charakter ist eine nette 1:1-Kopie, vielleicht weniger toxisch als Warner. Trotzdem kann die Autorin definitiv Romance schreiben und besonders auch gute Dialoge, aber abgesehen muss die Reihe für mich noch einen Zahn zulegen, wenn sie ein besseres Rating erhalten möchte.

4.5/5✨️
I found book 2 way more interesting than the first one even though I feel like the plot is still very slow and kinda confusing. I don't really see where the author is going with the story but I'm trusting the process I guess.
Anyways, I still liked the book, I love Tahereh's writing it's so addicting. The world building is great and I absolutely looooove the characters (probably the actual reason why I like it so much)
Can't wait to read book 3!
