When I originally saw the trope list for this book I was seriously so excited because it seemed like it had so many things that I loved! Unfortunately for me, I felt like it was trying to do a bit too much and didn't see it all the way through.

When I started this book, it seemed to throw me in the middle of the world. Which I understood a bit since it is in the middle of a series of companion books, but I'm usually not this lost. It took me a bit to get into it, and I felt like the romance was a bit messy which wasn't necessarily a bad thing. The conflicts that kept arising didn't make much sense to me, so it made the romance seem immature. It became harder and harder for me to root for the couple in the end.

Overall, it was okay. Not a new favorite, but not in a rush to read more in the series.
