I'm so conflicted as to how I should rate this but for now I'll give it a 3,25. I feel like as much as this story had a great premise, it felt unfinished. I really enjoyed Banu's character and she was probably one of the very few characters in this book that had a closure and an arc but everything else felt floating at the end.
