From the moment I heard that a self published book had exploded and was going to be traditionally published, I knew I had to read it. I saw so many good reviews that it became a 5 star prediction for me. I do think my crazy expectations did it no favours, but I loved it nonetheless. A few things about the writing style or pacing irked me at times, but the story and the characters kept me going. Multi POV is one of my absolute favourite fantasy tropes, so I loved that part of it as well.
