Tbh…? This was very predictable and did read like a first book :/ some cringey writing highlights (SPOILER WARNING)
‘‘But you’ll be dead and I’ll be… Okht I’ll be alone,’ Lana whispered. Zafira’s eyes burned. ‘It’s what Baba would have wanted.’’ Lol wut?
And
‘Deen’s throat would never bob again.’ Lol wut

It was a bit slow to start but it started picking up once the quest and action began. It was funnier than I was expecting with witty banter and cutting quips.
I enjoyed that all of the characters had their own agenda to start with, and then the dynamics of the group changed so they started to care for one another and become friends.
The relationship between Nasir and Zafira worked well as a slow burn. Their shifting feelings felt genuine and believable. 
I enjoyed the growth of the characters as well, with Zafira growing into her confidence and Nasir allowing himself to experience his emotions. 
I'm looking forward to reading the sequel!

It was a solid YA book, but it's just really not my style. If you anly read YA, I think you would enjoy the book a lot more than I did.
