I can see why this book was popular. I liked it. The worldbuilding and the lore were good.

While there are many things to like about the book, there were a few things that didn't make it quite perfect. I wanted more:
* Grisha lore;
* location descriptions;
* and connection with the prologue and epilogue.
While not perfect, I couldn't put the book down and I can't wait to read the rest of the series!

However, due to the author’s recent lack of solidarity and dismissal of genocide, I will not be continuing her books at this time.
