I read this together with my sister in law, we had so much fun, the writing is awesome, and we've already ordered the second book.

This book made me ugly cry. I loved every single part of this, although sometimes with equal hatred towards the end. Super curious how the sequel is going to play out with this dynamic!

This book was fantastic. It was jarring and it had twists and turns that constantly kept me on my toes. Some points were a little frustrating some of the unexpected twists making other parts if the book seem null and void. Like some of the progress wasn't actually progress. Which while making it an addicting story bothered me the slightest bit as I felt for the characters and it felt like all the work they had done was for nothing, and then as a way to involved reader I had those emotions too. 8/10 would recommend great book but too intense for some readers (I will still talk about it constantly though). This book also includes a magical age gap relationship that is somehow okay. So if that bothers you this book will too.

3.0

On one hand, this is the first time when reading a fantasy romance that I've actually cheered the main couple on. The other hand is that an author who cannot write an action scene has chosen to write a five-phase combat tournament and it is grating. (I am side-eyeing every named editor who didn't catch the glaring continuity error in the first chapter.)
