the art was beautiful but that was almost the only thing I liked about this book. the plot was confusing. I didn’t understand why there even was a conflict between rami and nayra. Everything was solved too quickly. Nayra also immediately forgave all of her bullies just after they apologized ONE time. I thought I would love this book so I’m really disappointed but again the art was stunning so at least that. Also the djinns were cool but again I thought the conflict wasn’t very well fleshed out.
