As much as I don't like cliffhangers, this was one hell of a story! It had shades of Hunger Games, Red Rising, Game of Thrones, and Throne of Glass, but it was somehow still very original. I'm not even sure how the author pulled it off, and given this is the DEBUT novel (👀👀👀), I am genuinely pumped to see how the future books in this series are gonna turn out. Seriously, the twists and turns were a delight! 🥳
