4 because I’ve definitely been pulled into the world and want to read the next book. I was frustrated by most of the characters at various times. Interesting world-building. Most of the twists I did see coming, but I still enjoyed the ride and honestly I think the seeds were well planted without being prematurely telling vs showing. A bit of an emotional rollercoaster for me, and I’m awaiting the next book from the library.
