In general, I enjoyed this book and the unique premise. Unfortunately, I don’t think this book was edited at all. There was some expositional elements repeated when they didn’t need to be, and there were a ridiculous amount of typos and missing or incorrect punctuation marks. There were also quite a few run-on sentences. The obvious lack of editing took me out of the story often.

All in all, I loved how immersed we were in the story, but it is unusual for the genre.

Something I loved about this book was that the name bearer has no name. And when she goes through transitions in her life
The friendship in this book was probably my favorite aspect. Watching them grow from young girls to women was incredible.
I thought the concept of this book was utterly fascinating. I hope to learn more about the flowers of prophecy and their origin in the sequel.
