I wanted to get myself lost in a fantasy world and this did it for me :)
The time being this world’s form of currency really grabbed my attention while browsing the library. And while this world’s time’s value confused me throughout the book, it’s still interesting.

Really good fantasy book that kept me hooked right from the beginning.  Loved how everything was described and immediately loved esch character. Lots of plot twists BUT some are guessed from either a mile off or a few pages before the plot twist was revealed (hence why I didn't give this a full 5 star rating). 
Lots of mysteries in this book which is what made it hard for me to stop reading. Good ending and I can't wait to read the next book!

I greatly enjoyed this book, but I feel that the author fell too deeply into stereotypes. However, I do have to say that I was not expecting the plot twist at the very end. 

Loved the character development, loved the idea, but feel that it wasn’t executed as well as it could have been.

i wasnt sure about this book after reading a number of negative reviews but im so glad i didnt listen. i thought this concept was so unique and that is what drew me to this book. i got through this book in one sitting!! the world building was insane and the character development was beautiful to watch. the only thing that bothered me was how long jules took to figure everything out…but i can also see that that is what keeps the book moving.
