The book is filled with important details, a wide range of characters, surprising twists, turns and hidden gems, and my ADHD brain forced me to to stop up at times and re-read certain parts, but that's not a complaint. I'm often an impatient reader, so the fact that I'm invested enough to go back and re-read earlier patagraphs, is probably one of the best compliments I can give an author.
What more can I say? I loved this book. So good. Now, I'm diving into the next one in the series. I have no idea what will happen next, but I am certain that it will hurt, confuse me and amaze me. Can't wait.

This is a story about problems that could have been easily solved had any of the characters tried to communicate with each other, but it’s not a story that relies on miscommunication.
The cast of characters is memorable and (mostly) lovable. The setting is intriguing. And the magic system in this world is downright fascinating.
I cannot express how much I love this book short of a full fledged essay.
