It’s been a minute since I read a YA sci-fi/fantasy that I enjoyed (that wasn’t a re-read or sequel).

I thought this was interesting, and very different from other books I’ve read from this author duo.

The blend of the magical and the technological was really compelling, and I liked that these two worlds are so different from each other, despite the fact that they all originate from one place.

I did think the romance happened far too quickly. Not sure why time couldn’t have passed a little during the story to make their infatuation with one another a little more believable.

While I liked this, I’m not sure it will be a story I will think about a couple weeks from now. And if I ever pick up the sequel I would absolutely have to read this book again, and I’m not sure I loved it to the point that I would want to do that.
