Holy SHIT. I was nervous about picking up a fantasy given how I’d barely just gotten back into reading, but this book gripped me from the beginning so hard that I literally did an all-nighter to finish it the night I started. I haven’t done that in like a decade. Super enjoyable, super memorable, can’t wait to continue the ride with the next book.
