The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo
4.0
I think I'm gonna end this on a 4 star read though honestly it falls between that and a 3.75.
I felt like the ending chapter was so bland compared to the rest of the book. Like it honestly wasn't satisfying at all in comparison to how the book was setup and the pacing. Also, the love story of it was kinda a mess since it seemed like a matter of fate and very insta-love once you find out this really only happened over the course of a few weeks.
I will say that the writing was gorgeous and honestly for 97% of the book I was invested. I felt like the magic system was interesting even though it wasn't fully explained, it seemed very realistic to the time. And I loved the setting both in time period and country.
This was my first book by the author and I'm excited to read other of her works.
