I think that this book is pretty alright. The protagonist wasn’t exactly my favourite— she’s very hypocritical and monotonous, but does have a lot of character development through the first book (though I still don’t really enjoy her). The other characters were far more captivating to me, as well as the world-building being quite thorough. However, I will say that the writing can get boring at times and the way this book finished was extremely disappointing, but only because I would think it happens later in the series. Overall, not a horrible book I do recommend!
