This was so good! Although it had a fairly basic concept, I thought that the execution was amazing. Rowan and Citra were such 3-dimensional characters, and I really enjoyed reading from both of their perspectives. I wish I got to see more of Scythe Faraday and Scythe Curie’s relationship, but the novel was good nonetheless. The ending was definitely a shocker, and I will definitely be reading the rest of the series. So good, and it confirmed why I like sci-fi novels!
