This started out a bit slow but I got drawn in very quickly and I loved it, the whole book is full of culture and and it was incredibly diverse within the story I just loved it :) 
The action was cool and
when Mateo activated the full extent of his power it was so cool and the fighting scenes got a lot more interesting so
I can’t wait to see any fighting scenes in the sequel :)
