I cannot begin to describe how much I loved this book. The world felt so full and magical. Sometimes fantasy's that have strong romance storylines fall flat in other areas but I didn't feel like that with this story. I cannot wait for the next book to come out!

The trigger warnings for the audiobook are read at the end, not very helpful. As well, the character list download from the publisher is only mentioned at the end of the book as well. 

The book started off slow and the world building was a bit awkward until you get into the rhythm of the book and the setup gets going but that takes over a good 1/4 of the book to get there, give it a chance. I read a character and brief plot summary from Crew Fiction.com that didn’t have too many spoilers but also helped me with placing everything in context in the audiobook not having a print copy character list to reference. It made me want to continue reading and I was assured readers are mixed in their like/dislike of this book. 

It was worthwhile to persevere and I’ll be reading the sequel. The world building is interesting once you get further, way further in.

Wow wow wow this was so bad!! Bad writing, intolerable and nonsensical FMC, confusing ass world building, and not enough spice to make up for all the bad parts. I only kept up with it because it was a buddy read.

A first book in a new world with a traumatic history or its existence and the main characters. 

I suspect there's a wealth of heartache, vengeance and destruction coming up in the next book and I can't wait.
