Good book with beautiful writing and worldbuliding. But as the book slowed down I think my interest kind of waned. But all in all, the world in the book is so beautiful with unique places, cultures, trials that the characters go through. There was a lots of character development with them confronting their trauma and gaining self confidence. 

I liked the idea of the council siblings and the Ray and how they could speak to each other through it. I like how they each was Appointed their own part to play in the world. I also like how the each have their own Hallow, a supernatural gift, like Kirah with healing and Tarisai with seeing memories. It's awesome and unique to each of them. 

The down fall is that it was too slow paced for me and I wished we got learn about the other council siblings outside of Kirah, Dayo and Sanjeet, but overall it was a really good book.
