I think this book made me realize how much of a character person I am, and I think that's the biggest fault I see in this book. The main characters aren't really explored and the main romance suffers a lot for it, it feels really forced. 
Loved the worldbuilding and the mystical ambiance (the narration is absolutley beautiful all the way through), that kept me hooked but I don't think it was enough to make me enjoy the whole story.
