Completely magical, the best way to start with fantasy books

Ok so I didn't give it five stars just because I'm a very rigorous person. But it is definitely a book that completely captivated me.

Yes, it's true that Scarlett's character can sometimes come off as annoying and naive when it comes to how worried she should be about her sister, Tella. But I actually think that gives a special touch to her character. Not all protagonists should be nice people.

Overall, I think this is a perfect book to start reading fantasy, I say this from personal experience since it was mine. It is very easy to read, a world which can be understood without the need to be an "expert" in the fantasy genre and unexpected twists that will blow your mind.
