great read! there were parts where it moved a little too slow for my liking but the overall pace wasn’t bad. the plot & character development were also amazing and it was great to see the story evolve in all its complexity. i particularly like the use of foreshadowing, just enough to still keep me on my toes.
i had to pull out a translator for all the french bits, but aside from that, it was a very exciting story! can’t wait to get my hands on the sequel.
