I hate that I couldn't get into it how I hoped. It was written great and I love Estrella and Caelum. I wanted to give it 4☆ but couldn't bring myself to. It was a lot of world building and fillers. I loved all of the world building, but the fillers had me skimming over whole paragraphs or things that just never seemed important.
