One of the most unique settings I've ever read. A city entirely surrounded by a violent storm. The world building is unlike any I've read before. It's intricate yet easy to follow, and all but vibrated off the page.
It's a quick read if that's what you're looking for, but grips your throat on the first page and never lets go. Revolution, possession, plots, spies, secret histories and more.
Also, this book has one of the most memorable and believable enemies to lovers arcs I've read in a while.
