loved this! good pacing and structure, lush writing, distinct characters, a lot of scenes that felt almost cinematic. should've explored magic/abilities a bit more. 
also what the hell happened to that love letter nina wrote? why wasn't it reintroduced in the end?

3.0

while the first book in the trilogy was enjoyable yet confusing, this one had a much clearer tone but felt boring. i liked the characters and they did develop but it felt so minor compared to everything that was happening around them (which wasn't all that much). hoping for book 3 to be more ambitious and complex!

loved the tone, didn't like the structure. and yes, i, too, will forever be tied to my best friend in a way no cis man will ever understand.
