I loved the characters and how they dealt with the mystery and challenges that they find themselves in.
By time I got to the end of the book I was so happy that I already had the sequel. The ending left my mouth agape and me reaching immediately for the sequel.

This book surprised me in a good way. I really like the worldbuilding and Kiva as the main character is interesting, to say the least.
Tipp is the cutest character ever 🫶 and for the most part, I really liked the found family
Seriously, I can’t stop thinking about that ending. It blew my mind even though I guessed most of it. Amazing. The narrator is everything here.
I’m pretty sure I dreamed of this book today
Spoiler
Mother is dead.
I’m on my way to Vallenia.
It’s time to reclaim our kingdom.
