4.0

That ending! I immediately carted out the sequel because I need to know what happens next! This is where booktok does it right and recommends a book worthy of the hype.

Just when you think you can foresee the ending, the plot changes direction and leaves you reeling for more. I wouldn’t say this scratches the Fourth Wing itch, but it’s close enough. The plot premise is very similar to FW but a reverse in roles.

Side track: The general seems iffy tbh. I feel all the built up is a lie and that Fia and him aren’t endgame. He has too many secrets. Too sus.

Anyway, for a debut book, I really think this was very well done!
