My expections weren't that high since this got some pretty bad ratings but I really loved it - 4.25 stars!
❦︎ I could hardly put this book down once I started reading it, I felt like the pacing was great and I was NEVER bored
❦︎ This was my first book by Raven Kennedy and I loved her writing so much, she got me laughing out loud but also feeling so much empathy for the characters
❦︎ I enjoyed the characters, but I didn't feel that connected to them, so I couldn't give it a higher rating
❦︎ I feel like this series has so much potential and that it's going to only get better and better and I'm really looking forward to continue reading it
❦︎ I really loved the world and the setting of Orea, the wintery vibes (even though it's summer rn) and the mountains...
❦︎ King Midas gave me major Tamlin vibes XD but once you get further into the book you kinda start to understand and like him? idk but I'm excited to see where Raven Kennedy is going to take us
❦︎ There is so much mysoginy in this book wow, but it is realistic for the time back then, at some points it was just hard to read about
❦︎ There are very serious topics discussed such as sexual assault, rape, etc. so you should keep that in mind
