I wish it was longer! Some elements felt rushed because of the novela type format. I would have wanted more of the Headmaster and teachers. Really nice addition to the world here.

I have really liked Cora ever since her introduction in Beneath the Sugared Sky, and I'm so happy most of this book was about her and her coming-of-age. It's a really lovely installment, and it's one that brings a whole new slew of characters into the mix. Beautifully written with beautiful themes and a lovely installment in the series.
