Definitely an... interesting start to a series. I liked parts of it, and the magic of the world is a cool concept, but I didn't love the execution and I didn't really connect with the characters. The constant time jumping between Rielle and Eliana was very confusing, especially in the first half of the book, and the prologue chapter gave away the reveal that happened close to the end. I almost think it would have worked better as an epilogue to connect everything and have the reader go "OH SHIT."
I'm invested in learning how Rielle
destroyed the world
, so I will be continuing the series for that.
