I was largely interested in the story until it got about halfway and I began to notice that while each chapter was filled with descriptive action scenes, romance, and tension, it all felt hollow. I liked the beginning, it had a lot of good elements and had me pumped for what got these characters to this place. I think it belongs in the adult fantasy section.Ī lot to process and lacks details (spoilers) I probably wouldn't consider it young adult though. I loved that Rielle & Eliana had their flaws and I loved that we got to know them on a fundemental level.
This book was jam packed with action, swoon worthy heroes, and some really powerful women. The plot was fascinating and I loved all of the characters that I read. My rating would be a 4.5 but since I cannot do a half star I'm going to round up to 5. I was so glad that I switched to audiobook that I think it added a half star to my rating. Fiona Hardingham (Narrator)just added a little bit more to the story. When I first listened to the narrator's voice I was hesitant but by the end I loved it. Unfortunately, I wound out of time to physically read the book so I ended up buying the audiobook. Once I finally found time to read the book it grabbed my attention. The description grabbed me & it sounded like a book that I would fall in love with. When I saw this book on Netgalley, I knew I had to read it.
