i liked it a lot, but honestly im not the biggest fan of fantasy books like this bc i can never follow along with the world building. i was really confused abt the tox stuff and the ending felt rushed and unfinished.
but lots of wlw rep i love that! and hetty was a great protagonist. i felt like her and reese didnt have a lot of chemistry tho, like i didnt hate them together but i wasnt loving it(maybe bc it felt rushed too..im more of a slowburn type of girl)
unrelated but some parts made me cringe, you know when you can just tell that an author used to write fanfiction? dont get me wrong i love reading ao3 but i dont want to read borderline fanfiction in an actual published book
