OMGG i loved this book so much!! the moment i started, i could not put this down. i fell in love (again) with schwab’s beautiful imagery and worldbuilding, and i loved the concept of using alternate realities with magic! this made me feel like i was entering a retelling of a classic fairytale, where pirates and magicians exist. it was so full of adventure and had lots of exciting twists and turns! i recommend this to everyone <3
