"What a tool cynicism is to the corrupt, claiming the whole of the creation is broken and fraudulent, and thus we are all excused to indulge in whatever sins we wish - for what's a little more unfairness, in this unfair world?"
Plant magic, great worldbuilding, giant monsters, a complex whodunit murder mystery, and a Holmes/Watson-esque duo on the case.... this book has it all! I seriously love the two main characters so much. Ana is ridiculous and so funny. Din is so charming. I need more of them ASAP!
This book had me hooked from the very beginning and I can't say enough good things about it. This is one of the best books I've read all year (maybe even the best)!
