This book won me over, and crushed me. I didn't think I would rate it 5 stars - I was enjoying it, yes, but there were doubts and criticisms lingering in my mind that were eventually burned away. Books that deal with morally grey characters and situations are some of my favorites, and this book tackles the topic in a uniquely devastating fashion. I cannot wait to read the sequel.

Hunger games meets Tim Burton style wizards. I loved this book so much and even though it’s technically YA I honestly didn’t notice. I am def intrigued to read the next book!

I love this book. But I almost gave up on it entirely. It was advertised as being like The Hunger Games but with magic. There are multiple main characters and it was tough keeping track of them when listening to the audiobook.
It started out feeling a little gimmicky and a little fanfiction. But it didn't take long for the world and characters to really come to life.
The thing that kept me reading was the queer representation, and the way the author has chosen to normalize it in this world. That alone was enough to get me over the hump and fall in love with this book.
This book ends with no conclusion. Make sure you have book two ready to go.
