*I received an arc in exchange for an honest review*
I really enjoyed this book! The whole idea of people coming back to life is fascinating. I just wanted to keep reading so I could find out more about the Resurrected, and especially about Dina’s powers.
The main and side characters are all interesting and likeable. I really care about the characters, which is an absolute must for me. I love Ivy’s sarcasm and sometimes rash acting, she kept me on my toes lol. She has a great character arc and certain decisions make so much sense given her backstory. Dina is so different from Ivy but also a pleasure to read about. Plus: this book has heavy found family vibes and it’s truly amazing!
And the romance… whew. I love Ivy and Dina with my entire heart. The yearning? The way they keep finding their way back to each other? Amazing.
Also… the final chapters had me on the edge of my SEAT I finished the last 30% in one sitting, which is unusual for me!
I recommend this book to people who are interested in stories about people coming back from the dead, superpowers, revenge and found family.
