A tremendous book. So well written. It was honestly magical. Laini Taylor took her time to write this book and the result displays the incredible penmanship and effort she put into this story.
It is such a mysterious tale which really drew me in and made me want to stay.
The only complaint I have, which really isn't that much of a complaint and more of a personal preference, is that when we take a look back on Akiva and Madrigal's memories it feels very slow and slightly dreary and I would rather get back to the action that had been carved so wondrously in the previous chapter.
I loved the element of magic, love and wishes. And hope.
So beautiful. Top marks for Laini Taylor.
