I’m not a big fan of fantasy as a rule, but this book was a fun read once I got into it. It felt a tad preachy at times and at others it seemed a little “shock value for shock value’s sake”, but overall I adored the characters and world building and am definitely going to read the sequel.

This book is brilliant, but if you aren't prepared for an unflinching story of a hard life of a girl who has been plagued by SV her whole life, I'd recommended not reading it until you are.
