It’s been a long time since I got so sucked into a book that I felt I could not stop reading it. However, despite that, I was cringing almost every other page at cliche and unrealistic lines. The characters lack emotional intelligence and the overall writing was subpar. The worldbuilding swings back and forth between inspired and shallow.  Elements of the book are clearly good because I genuinely was very invested and enjoyed it, but objectively the book was leaning toward terrible.
