I realized I was only reading this to fulfill a challenge, and I realized I wasn’t into the story and don’t want to waste time reading books just to check them off. I barely picked this up since I started it. On to something that excites me and makes me want to read.

a beautifully written novel, this didn’t read the way id expected it too but in a really good way. this book was so lyrically and magically written that it creates a really unique atmosphere and i will definitely look out for the authors future work.
