4.0

This is a solid YA fantasy book.
It’s not overly complicated, although there are a heap of twists and turns which I enjoyed.
I liked the cast of characters, Val and Chinua especially. I liked that Val wasn’t afraid of her emotions and that she for once in a ya fantasy book, communicated.
Although this book is relatively simple, it is complex in its detail, but is a good, quick read.
I’m super satisfied with this book, and look forward to the second one.
