This is how you write a fantasy book! WOW WOW WOW

I am so happy the hype is real! Throughout reading this book I was starting to get that 5 star feeling and the ending sealed the deal for me. 

I've seen some critiques about this book, like the nickname "Violence" for "Violet" isn't that cute or the writing isn't that descriptive. These are fair critiques, but I ate this book up!

This book was such an enjoyable read! I will say if this is your first foray into the fantasy world, I could see it being a bit confusing because there isn't much world building. The author dives us right into the story. I think creatively we learn about the backstory of the world we're dropped into, but it's not the chapters and chapters of world building that are in some other fantasy books. 

I felt so many emotions reading this book and became attached to so many characters. I am so excited to read the next book and I'm praying to Malek, or whichever Gods the book recommends, that the next one is as good as the first.
