Glad I kept pushing through though, because it was worth it in the end!
Might have to read the sequel even though I wasn't planning on it.

this book was so cool.
found family is probably my favourite trope, and the execution in this one was *chefs kiss*
I loved all the characters so it is a little bit hard to choose favourites but I think my favourite is Nina 🤭 she's just so cool.
I also adore the enemies to lovers part of Nina and Mathias... absolute perfection. (he was added to my book boyfriends ofc)
all the characters are freaking amazing and they are my babies fr.
the first like 50 pages are a little bit slower than the rest of the book and it's definitely a bit confusing (although it helps if you read shadow and bone before this). but it definitely picks up after that. and it's written in third person even with a bunch of different povs but I did get used to it. but I do think it would be better in first person with this amount of povs (I hope this makes sense). but again, I got used to it and the plot became too good for me to even care about it.
I'm just absolutely obsessed with this and I can't wait to read the sequel.
