Mystical, all-consuming, and a marvel to read. The plot and character development were beautifully geared toward a lesson on how it takes a brave heart to change things. You either let fate decide for you or let fate chase after you. The world-building was easy to comprehend and imagine with the straightforward details it let on. I just loved it, especially that it didn't have unnecessary content and was very straight to the point considering it is a standalone novel. And you just can't help falling in love with the characters brimming with emotions. The tales being told felt nostalgic and brought back childhood memories. I've added it to my list of books to reread.
