Thank you, Allison Trebacz for this ARC!! 

This was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!! So much action, intrigue, and mystery!! And a prophecy!! I love a good prophecy!! 

I enjoyed the worldbuilding; it was easy to feel immersed and not want to put the book down and keep reading! 

I also loved the balance of the supporting characters with the main characters; I found the characters rather easy to root for and get attached to. 

The story's take on the concept of 'trials' was so interesting!! I love stories with trials, and I personally haven't read a lot of group trials versus solo trials so this concept got me hooked! 

The mystery of Reina's powers and identity kept me invested throughout the story and when the reveal happened at the end...WOW!! It added so much tension between the characters and got me wanting the next book even more!!!! I cannot wait until the next book comes out!!!
