Did not expect to cry when I finished this book but I did. This duology was so good, far exceeding my expectations. I love the mix of magic/fantasy with classic mythology and legend. This book in particular there was such a mix of emotions felt throughout the book, from excitement and shock, to sorrow and grief. The last 4-5 chapters definitely caught me by surprise, but I think it makes sense. I also can see why Sue Lynn Tan decided to release a novella with other short stories, because I already miss the characters and I just finished the book 😭 Highly recommend for anyone who likes fantasy that includes romance. Such a lovely, well-written story, with amazing and admirable characters and I'll be thinking about these books forever.
