Definitely a unique magic system and an interesting plot. This was definitely dark at times (Mancella's dad was the worsttt) but the pacing lost me in the middle. I enjoyed both of our MCs and was very surprised by the reveal at the 75% mark! Feel like the story reallyyy picked up from there and the ending was veryyy intriguing!
3.5 stars
