This book was just weird to me. It felt so YA specially since it’s in El’s pov and so much information was given in such a rambling way that I got lost so many times, I had to go back and re read again. All the other characters are so underdeveloped, El is so rude and while I didn’t hate her in the end, damn is she annoying, it felt very much like a 16 yo. I was bored and lost with the magic elements and I feel like the world building would have work better if this wasn’t told from El’s pov. The extra star is for the cover, cuz it’s a beauty, but otherwise this book is a meh. Will read the second one just to see if El and Orion’s relationship is developed and she stops being rude to him (and will definitely skip the 3rd book iykyk)

A great read, albeit a touch hard to get into the writing style until 1/3 of the way through, afterwards, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I read half the book and really wanted to love it, but the writing style did not jive with me!
