Just like Rebecca tricked us all into reading a military romance with Fourth Wing.. Sarah has tricked us into reading some sort of CSI, murder mystery.. and I’m not even slightly mad about it. It was a lot to digest at first but once I got the hang of who the characters were and what the magic system was (typical fantasy probs lol) it was smooth sailing. The plot twists were insane though! Every time I thought I had figured out what was going to happen or who was behind what, Sarah threw me for another loop and I was back to square 1 of trying to decipher who the real villains were. 10/10 this book kept me on my toes and thoroughly entertained. ❤️‍🔥
