I thoroughly enjoyed this Hunchback of Notre Dame retelling! From the first page I was sucked in by the magic system and it got better from there. There were twists within twists and by the end, you don't know who to believe.

The world-building could use some expanding but I think that will be rectified more in a 2nd book. I really appreciated how much grey area there was in terms of who was good and who was bad. Overall rating 4.5 stars!

Thanks so much to Netgalley and the Publisher for an e-arc in exchange for an honest review.
