The Gilded Ones by Namina Forna
3.0

I still don't know 100% how I feel about this book and series. I loved it enough to want to continue with the series to see where it is going. I think it definitely could hook me in and make me love it depending on what happens after this. I didn't used to like the found family trope but it is really growing on me. I've read numerous books with it that I have absolutely adored. I loved all the characters so much but some of the plot points had me wanting to throw the book. There were some instances where travelling certain distances on the map took so long and then travelling slightly farther took significantly longer. I don't know why that part bothered me. This was a club read for my book club and overall I am really glad I picked it up and I will definitely read the next book to see where it is going.
