However as much as I like the beginning, it really went downhill throughout the book (maybe because the start gave me higher expectations xD). Aminas choices made less and less sense to me and her success depended on too many coincidences. Some of the deeper conflicts (mainly the whole Asif-topic) got "solved" in a dissapointingly easy way, that felt a little bit shallow.
Overall this was an okay read for me. I enjoyed the writing and the general idea behind most of the characters.
Just as an extra info. As a person that really doesnt like gore, I found some of the descriptions on the edge of being too much. But I recognize that i am probably a bit on the sensitive side when it comes to violence and gorey stuff xD
