Five Broken Blades by Mai Corland
5.0

I usually don’t make comparisons to other books but this gave me Six of Crows meets Throne of Glass (early books) vibes and I was all about it!
I absolutely loved everything about this book! The characters were diverse and each brought something different to the story. You loved them but at the same time knew you couldn’t trust any of them but at the same time you’re rooting for them and for everything to work out.
I loved that the world building was done throughout the story and there wasn’t a big info dump all at once. You learn about the world and the characters as the story goes on and it makes it easier to get into the story!
I was worried that it was going to be hard to follow with all the different characters but it really wasn’t as all their stories are tied together.
And that ending! I knew something big was going to be coming but I have to admit I did not expect the ending we got! I cannot wait for the second book to come out and I need it asap so I can see what happens next!
