dark emotional mysterious tense

4.5

4.5 stars. I loved the revenge plot of the story. I liked the fact that the FMC (Sofia) didn’t have to rely on a man in order to get her revenge, I feel that that’s something that not a lot of revenge stories have, which is something that I enjoyed about this book. I was confused though on Sofia’s appearance and how it took Theo so long to recognize her. I also felt that the end was a bit too rushed, Victor’s death felt rushed. But other than that, it was an interesting and entertaining read. Can’t wait to read the second book of this series.

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

4 stars. I enjoyed the book's magic aspect and its uniqueness. I enjoyed how the backstory of the revolution and the characters were intertwined with the present. I was disappointed with the character development, specifically Rune's. I was expecting to see a bit more of an independent, badass side of her. She depended a bit on her friends, which isn't bad but given how the Crimson Moth was portrayed I had expected her not to be as dependent as she was. I didn't expect the cliffhanger at the end, which I found to be a nice surprise. I am looking forward to reading the second book
