This was one of my small book club books, and I was honestly disappointed. Granted I am not much of a YA reader so I wasn't expecting any intense relationship building, but even when focusing on the plot it felt very flat, and most of the moments were very predictable. It felt like a hunger games want to be in a fantasy outfit and it was lacking intrest till the last moments, and even those were really rushed. 
Im sure if you are younger this would be an amazing introduction to fantasy but I wouldn't honestly recommend to any older readers.
