2.5/5 stars

I dunno. Maybe it was because I compared this book to The Night Circus and Caraval based on the setting...but I found this book quite underwhelming and I got bored.

Eh...I liked that the romance was between a bisexual woman and an asexual man. I liked all the magic but I wish there had been more of the politics and war included.

Wasn't crazy about the dialogue, inner monologue, and nonstop emotions from the main character. Found the romance between the main character and her imagination odd. I saw the big twist mystery/villain reveal at the end within the first few chapters.
