I thought overall it was a good book. Definitely different then what I normally read in a YA fantasy book. I liked the concept a lot and the synopsis captivated me within the first few lines. The beginning had a very strong start and pulled me in and was most definitely crazy and creepy. And while I love the characters of Nita & Kovit and how fuckrd up they are and how they toe the line between good and bad I felt the story building fell slack for me. The middle was just okay, some scenes dragged on and on while other scenes I wanted more from were done in just a paragraph. And knowing that there’s at least two more books in the series makes me feel a little bit better about the ending. Also the plot twist I actually didn’t see coming so that’s always a nice surprise

Yesterday I finished 𝕹𝖔𝖙 𝕰𝖛𝖊𝖓 𝕭𝖔𝖓𝖊𝖘 and gave it 4⭐! Even though it was missing something for me to give it five stars, it doesn't mean it's not fascinating. I loved the characters, they were really well developed, the magic which was really unique, loved the writing style, story line and everything. Nita was one fierceless girl and I admired her since the beginning lol. Also I could see the relationship building between Nita and Kovit, but we'll see where that goes in the next two books 😏 I STAN OK!

C'était TROP BIEN
Ça m'a grave rappelé V.E Schwab One last song, on est sur une sorte d'urban fantasy, avec des monstres...
Toutes sortes de monstres, on a les classiques sirènes et vampires, mais aussi ceux moins connus qui viennent de d'autres cultures : des kappas des dauphins mangeurs d'humains et des Zannies.
L'histoire se passe en Amérique du Sud déjà, assez rare, même si on n'y rencontré pas vraiment les paysages de la bas puisque la plupart du bouquin se passe en prison lol
Nan mais j'ai adoré que les morales soient complètement OUT OF THE ROOF, l'héroïne est MALADE, et encore pire pour l'autre protagoniste ptdr

"It was strange to see them sad. She always thought of them as happy, dancing with the screams of the people he tortured"
La gadji elle trouve ça touchant mdr
Bref je vais foncer lire le 2.

I love a book with a strong female lead character!
Nita is not only strong, but smart. She would have thoughts or ways about a situation that I wouldn’t have even thought of.
The surprise at the ending was also very clever ! Although I did hope that her and Kovit had stayed together.
Was a good read! Next book is on order haha
