Eddie doesn't feel like he belongs anywhere. He doesn't have a purpose. That is until he finds a notebook in the middle of the woods after hearing a gunshot. Now Eddie is on a journey to find a woman who fears for her life. He might just find out that the world is filled with magic along the way.
I absolutely loved this book. I want more of this universe immediately. Right in my hands. It's so good.
The characters are amazing. I loved the depth of all of them and how they all viewed the world. Each person had such a different viewpoint that all worked together in a strange and intriguing way. I loved learning about all of the characters even if they are all morally grey. they are all just people trying to survive in the strange and messed up world of the book.
The world-building was really interesting. Typically when a book doesn't really establish the rules of magic, the world-building can feel a little bit lackluster. But this book does it amazingly. The world was just so rich and I loved the way that magic was described. I also thought that the talk about fate and free will was super interesting and I absolutely loved it.
The twist at the end was my favorite thing. I didn't see it coming. I possibly could have if I was trying to but I was totally on board with just letting the story flow over me. I think that's honestly the best way to read it. The story is really just beautiful and I love that our two characters will choose each other every day for as long as they can.
Overall, a wonderfully written book. Definitely give it a read, though read the content warnings first.
