The writing was very simple and really easy to read, but lacked a lot of description and world building. I never really had a clear picture of the world and magic system, there was a lot of explanation through our main character learning about the world, but mostly tell and not show. This felt like so many other popular YA fantasy books I’ve read before, I can definitely see what books it is heavily inspired by *cough ACOTAR*

I was easily sucked in and couldn’t put it down, especially the last 20% of the book was insane. I had the main plot reveal figured out, but there was still A LOT that surprised me. I’m definitely going to continue the series to see what else of my predictions come true!
