I have to be honest, I struggled with the first few chapters. VERY dense with world building and a lot of characters introduced in a short time. But it picked up eventually, the slow burn romance is immaculate. I didn’t think I would like this series as much as Throne of Glass but I truly do, the characters are fun and different. The plot twists and turns kept me guessing, It kept me hooked and interested. And in typical SJM style the last 200 ish pages are like a rollercoaster. This book had me by the throat. I’m not normally an “expressive” reader but I paced my house a couple times, sobbed for a solid 5 minutes, laughed. I loved it, truly earned 5⭐️
