3.5

this book was truly a mystery for me. I didn't understand what was happening 90% of the time, and I really hoped that getting to the end would give me some answers, but it ends with only more questions to be (hopefully) answered in the next book.

I do understand why some people dislike the characters, there is almost zero development they go through (except maybe Tristan, but even that's a stretch). there is much more focus on building the plot and basis of the magic, and even that wasn't explained well.

this book did not do a good job in making me want to read the next one. so, I won't for now. maybe in the future, when I'm more in the mood.
