This is a fairly addictive read. I feel like this was written in response to acotar lol. I like Keera, her arc, and the world building set up. Honestly my main complain is Riven who I find atrociously boring. He feels like every other romantic lead and I can't bring myself to care. I kinda feel like the story might be stronger without the romance subplot. The writing definitely feels like a debut but I think there's room to grow. The ending was super interesting and I'm excited to see where it goes.
