I really enjoyed the characters and the reveal of Briar was done so cleverly. Clarke being a villain, however, was much less of a satisfying reveal. I like twist villains just as much as the next person, but when there is absolutely no foreshadowing or hints as to them being the villain, I just find it annoying.
The worldbuilding was super unique and, at first, I was a bit overwhelmed by it, but it made sense fairly quickly. I enjoyed how it had a fantasy feel while also being connected to a modern world in a way that didn’t feel forced.
Overall, this book was fun and I definitely enjoyed the second half better than the first. My favorite character was probably Briar or Jin.
