5.0

I really had no idea what to expect with this book once I started. It had a very dystopian-esque feel, while also giving all the historical and fantasy vibes all at the same time. But even though I don't know what genre to call it, I really loved this book!

It felt very unique, never making me think of another story or author. I loved the world-building, and I probably could have read about 50 pages more if there had been a bit more detail on some things. I'm not sure if I just had trouble following or if there were things that just weren't explained as well as I would have liked.

Between the ages of the characters and the steamy scenes, this is definitely more of an adult novel, but I also don't feel that it was terribly explicit. I give it about 2.5-3
