Jade City by Fonda Lee
4.0

➸ 4/5 stars
“Expectations are a funny thing,” Wen said. “When you’re born with them, you resent them, fight against them. When you’ve never been given any, you feel the lack of them your whole life.”

I think I need a couple of minutes to just stare at my wall after that ENDING! I am so glad I did not give up on this book because I really enjoyed it. It’s not my favorite fantasy book but it had really good elements. I love the aspect of power coming from Jade and I can’t wait to see other usefulness that comes along with it. I need someone to put me in a room with Bero because that man never gave up when it came to getting his revenge. Now with Hilo I wouldn’t want to be in a 50 mile radius of that man but at least he survived and I’ll be able to get more unhinged action from him. Overall I know this is only book one but I also hope for more character development from all the characters especially from Shaelinsan and Anden.
