if you liked hunger games or shatter me series you’ll love this! fast paced book with some of the BEST banter i’ve read in a long time, literally had me laughing out loud at times. great romance and i’d say it’s definitely a slowburn because it takes them ages to ever act on their feelings and they barely do that 😭. had some great quotes and definitely pulled at my heartstrings towards the end. loved many of the characters and also hated many so i’d say it was a diverse group of characters but only 2 POVS. overall recommend 1000%

Really enjoyable fantasy romance, more on the YA side and did feel like a mixture of all the YA fantasy books I’ve read before but it didn’t just feel too ‘repetitive’ which was good. Loved the main characters and their different personalities + getting a decent backstory on both of them. Felt like the side character were not very developed and some things in the plot were a bit too convenient / smoothed over, but overall a fun and new twist on favourite staples of the genre. Will read the next one. Kai is brilliant.
