oh my. Currently I am beyond grateful I didn’t read this book when it first came out so I can read the second book right away.

Firstly characters immediately liked Elspeth and her character had allure making me want to know more. Her family made my blood boil even her aunt and uncles family.
Rayvn yew, oh I’m so worried as to why more people don’t call him their book boyfriends. Cause seriously I’ve got another one to add to my list *smh* I love the broody nature of him and how elspeth is the same.
The “side characters” really made the story too, jysper and elm I LOVED while I am so behind irritated at ione I am hoping she has something up her sleeve.
Oh and yeah the thing inside elspeths head, at first I liked him now I’m … indifferent & feel many things at what has taken place with elspeth and the Shepard king

Although I had soft dnf’d this book because I wanted to read something else when I came back to it… it ended up being a two day read in which I stayed up till 4am reading it because I literally could not put it down. And when I did I HAD DREAMS about it. It was paced perfect to me I would say “fast” paced but in a way that all made sense it didn’t skip things I thought were important but it also didn’t linger to long on how tbe cracks looked in the cobblestone LOL.

All this to say I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will be buying the 2nd one ASAP because I MUST know what is going to happen.
