This was an amazing book. Like, there's no other way to say it. I thoroughly enjoyed it especially how it all come together at the end.

That said, it did take a while for it to find its footing and that is one of the reasons it took me a bit to get through it. When you add that with the numerous microaggressions that Bree had to deal with. Plus, with the being a take on the Knights of the Round Table, there were a lot of characters to keep track of.

I also didn't like Sel at all for like 70% of the book which was likely the point but still; and I didn't appreciate the dangling of a possible love triangle. I hope that they keep it just as a friendship between Bree and Sel, though, since he did grow on me and I think there could be more platonic relationships in YA.

But it kept a steady pace once the action started and the way it all come together threw me for a loop. I really appreciated how Tracy did put off the seeds for how it turned out so that, even if you couldn't see it all coming, when you reflected back on it, it made sense. It did end with a slight cliffhanger but nothing that caused me to throw the book across the room. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys the Arthurian legends but give CW/TW not just for familial deaths and abandonments, but for race and gender issues.
