i love leigh bardugo but this just didn’t hit the way i wanted it to. i didn’t feel connected to these characters and the plot wasn’t very compelling. i didn’t care for the love story either, it felt random almost and wasn’t convincing to me. i thought the setting was really cool though. very middle ground for me.
