I really liked this book! The story was so good. Unfortunately I read this while in a reading slump, which is why I think I haven’t been able to enjoy it to its fullest. Will definitely reread again, but!!! that ending! I want to read the second book immediately!
Taking a .5 star off because I felt like at times (especially in the middle part) information was just dumped on you. Felt like a bit too much, maybe? The characters were nice and I looooved the diversity, but there weren’t any characters I actually loved and felt a big connection to. Maybe that’ll change throughout the series, though!
I wasn’t a big fan of the romance …until I realized what was happening with Will being the Dark King Reborn and Katherine being The Lady’s descendant. Awesome writing.
