This was such an amazing surprise for me! I didn't expect it to be bad by any means but I was really blown out of the water!
This book really exemplifies what I enjoy about YA. Accessible, fast-paced, and able to take a simple premise and make a wonderful story out of it.
I loved the main cast and how they interacted with each other. So often you see insta-love along with a contrived love triangle, and another female character that's probably rich and bitchy to the main character. It was SO nice to pick up a YA book and have the main character strong and capable (but not stupid chosen one overpowered), a secondary female character who is kind to the main one and is also smart and generous, and a single love interest that developed over the course of the story and had a lovely slow-burn side plot.
(The vibes of this book are very BBC Merlin which I also love)
I wish I could have read this book as a teen, but I have absolutely no regrets picking it up now in my twenties.
