i genuinely did not expect to like this book very much! i’m not typically a fantasy person, but i can safely say that this book captured my attention. 

the characters all carry some weight along with them, and i think it enhances the story even more. i found myself rooting for everyone, even when i shouldn’t of been. i’m excited to read the rest of the series.
