3.0

I really wasn't sure what to expect. I read the synopsis and saw the cover and was like YES. Honestly, this is pretty unique in the YA fantasy genre, and I'm all for it. The singing as magic with different mage classes was a nice refresh to the typical magic systems. I also 10/10 appreciate the W/W sapphic pairing in it. That's not often in YA.

I only could give it 3 stars though. The overall plot was crafted fine, but it needed more solid world building to truly be a ~ good ~ fantasy novel.
