I was immediately intrigued by this book, but it took me a bit to make sense of the world-building, magic, and history. I noticed that it took me much longer to read these pages, and I'm not sure if that was because I was just trying to make sense of it all or if the writing was actually confusing at times. There was also a whole scene/chapter that I think could've been cut from the book, as it didn't seem to serve a larger purpose and just slowed down the pace of the story. While this was not a perfect book, I still found myself drawn to it and was enthralled in the end. Some lines were so good that I went back to reread them and even read them aloud to my husband. Whitten is talented, and I want to read more from her. I'm glad I don't have to leave this world she created quite yet.
