Really enjoyed this. The world building is the star of this book. It’s so fascinating and always left me wanting to know every detail of the lore. The plot is very straightforward, but I found that I didn’t mind because the world was so rich that it made sense to have a glimpse into these characters lives. 

I think the characters could have been stronger. Because of this I didn’t really care about the romance subplot, and honestly thought it could’ve been left out.
