3.0

adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Yes

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

this was something new for me, I picked this book up during stuff your kindle day, because this book sounded so interesting and fun and the cover is very pretty. in the end this was not a book for me for multiple reasons but I do believe this is a very solid debut novel that is interesting for other readers.

lets start with what I liked

the magic systems is really interesting
it has enemies to lovers
strong female characters
the mother of hope has some amazing quotes and moments

things I did not like:

I had an hard time understanding the magic system felt often confused with it
I did not really like the characters only two and those were hope & lenna. for the others I just didn't care.
I found the plot a little bit confusing some moments a lot was happening and in some nothing.
the dialogue was fun but a little bit cheesy in my opinion

but I would recommend this to reader who love a court of thorns and roses + the serpent and the wings of night + from blood of ash

and I wish that people will give this a try and find a new favorite book because I believe this book has that potential for others.
