• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes

4.0

I really enjoyed this book. I loved the worldbuilding, the political intrigue and the back drop of the plague. I loved the main character and I liked the romance. The ending did feel a bit rushed and there were some questions left unanswered that I would have liked to know  (

like about his being able to see ghosts

and even the origins of the plague although I recognize that wasn't necessarily relevant to the events of the book), but I don't mind. I had a really good time reading this book. 
(Also did anyone else feel like the name of the book was a little misleading/didn't make sense?? Like I said, loved the book but I finished and was like ?? why did she name the book that?? Anyone else or am I just dumb?)
