As can be expected from an India Hilton book, this was an absolute lark in a world where magical geography is an academic discipline. I loved the journey the two characters were on together and apart, though sometimes the longing/yearning would grate on me (though, to be fair, the longing and yearning is not always my favorite trope). That said, the payoff and the circumstances necessary for it do make sense after the journey they go on. And, India Holton's writing is an absolute delight, with quirks unique to her. 

Sensing that the time for dignity had not only come and gone but was now catching a ship for foreign parts with no intention of every returning.

Such a fun read & definitely a great airplane book!

I knew I was going to like this, since I find Holton's style of writing to be very entertaining, but the misunderstanding trope became a little too much. I also found the story a little too similar to the previous book in the series, this didn't feel as unique. But all in all I really enjoyed it!

this was fun but also i did let it get returned to the library when i was 77% done and was like eh. the plot wasnt that compelling, i was more just here for the characters.
