Where Dreams Descend by Janella Angeles
4.0
Kallia has been a showgirl at the Hellfire House for a long time. She also has lessons with the houses master Jack who teaches her new tricks with her magic. Kallia is ready for something new and when she goes to find it she also discovers some unsettling things.
I absolutely loved Kallia's character. She was headstrong and didn't care what others thought about her. There's a huge misogynistic vibe going on from a few of the older main characters that every time Kallia proved them wrong I was beaming. 
I can't really tell at this point whether Jack is really trying to protect Kallia or if he's just super possessive, so I'm not entirely sure how I feel about him yet.
There were a few things I didn't like about this book, but I really enjoyed reading it. I wish the writing had been more separated when switching between characters because sometimes it took me a minute to realize who I was reading about. Other than that, this story was different and I would love to read the next book when it comes out.
Thank you, Wednesday Books and NetGalley for this arc in exchange for an honest review.
