i am SO conflicted about this book. part of me adores this in every possible way, it was beautiful, the world building was gorgeous, the characters are so interesting and dimensional. but on the other hand, i found the last third of this book a struggle to get through- perhaps longer books just aren’t for me 😅 i felt there were a lot of pages but so little actual plot that i was sort of confused at what had actually happened??? i’m not sure on this but i did still love it and will be patiently waiting for the sequel. malini and priya are in for a ride.
