It’s a good beginner fantasy read. I liked some of the character development and I’ll be interested to see what they do in the next book.

The book deals with these themes within a fantasy context and its not graphic but there.

This book was really fun. i enjoyed how the mystery unfolded for the characters. it sat right in the fun spot of being able to figure things out just ahead of the characters. i found the characters to be fun to read. each pov characters felt well developed and unique. the side characters did as well. i was gripped the whole time waiting to see what would happen next. can’t wait to read the next book. it’s been moved to the front of my tbr

Wow wow wow. Killer. I’m so grateful I came across this book because of an instagram post by another favorite author. Truly fantastical and enthralling. I’ll sing this book’s praises all year. Reads like this give new weight to a five star read.

This has to be the most beautiful novel I’ve ever read. Ross’ lyrical prose is unlike any other author, and I absolutely devoured it. 

Though the fantasy element is there, Ross slowly builds the world in a way that feels inviting and never leaves you feeling confused. The relationships between Adaira and Jack and Torin and Sidra were so beautifully reminiscent of each other, and they interweaved flawlessly. 

This is a novel about belonging and home. Is it your blood that defines you? Or the people you choose?

4.0

If I was a reader who prefers character driven stories or if I was a reader who prefers plot driven stories, this would probably have been a 3-star read. But since I am a vibe focused reader, it's 4 stars. This story is definitely all vibes and almost no plot. Well, there is a plot, but it's SOOO slow. I liked it, though, and I liked the characters, but both did not stand out much. The atmosphere, though, woah. It's very magical and mystical, with a big focus on nature and the elements. Also, the audiobook narrator had the thickest Scottish accent, so it felt like it was taking place there. 
I also think, this book was way too long. So long. There was not enough plot or character development to warrant this many pages, tbh. But since I listened to it on audiobook, I just laid back, listened to it and enjoyed the setting and atmosphere.
