"On my first day as a Descendant, I'd nearly murdered a slew of people. On my second, I'd inspired a nation. On the third, I'd failed to do even the most basic task."
All Thea wants is to remember who or where she came from and why she did what she did. Everyone else seems to want to use her or kill her.
This book was kinda on the slow side for me. I enjoyed the plot but it seems to take a while to get to the good parts. I do enjoy all the characters and how each one is unique. Really liked the mythical elements to it. The plot twist at the end was unexpected but makes sense.
