Great start to the series, I was emotionally invested in the characters and I did not find it to be predictable at all. It was also an easy read, I read it in one day and did not feel bored of it. It is a reflection of what it feels to be a woman when misogyny is still very much present. I am looking forward to see how female friendships grow stronger and what the rest of the plot looks like.
“Why am I so cursed to endure the greed of men? Is it simply the gild of my skin? Or is it something more, something deeper […]”
“Rissa, who would’ve performed and taken everything he threw at her like a professional, because that’s how strong she is.”
“But memory and time aren’t friends […] always losing one as you go with the other.”
