I loved nasir 🖤🖤🖤 Good characters and world-building. And I liked the relationships between characters and the exploration of trauma and fears. Sometimes it dragged a little, but overall it was pretty good. The final chapter was the perfect ending.

Look, I didn't really care all that much for "We Hunt the Flames". Which was unfortunate as a lot of readers I follow did enjoy it. But I just didn't connect with the story. After reading the first book I didn't feel like continuing, however, I knew that if I didn't jump back into the story I would forget everything and then the book would sit on my shelf for the rest of eternity.
I got to about chapter four or five when I finally called it quits. It was the same feeling I got with the first book and I'm not going through that again for 500+ pages. My indifference to the characters is my main reason for putting this book down. I wished I would have enjoyed it like all the great reviews that I've seen, however, that didn't end up being my experience.

I do like where this story ended up. Once we got past the first half the language got a bit more clear and the action easier to follow. I still feel like the character development could've used more smoothing out, but overall I enjoyed the world, characters, and story.

This book is confusingly good. Everything was suddenly about an outburst of different magics in the middle of zafira and nasir trying to make their relationship works. i was on a roller coaster, but altair got what he deserves, our best boy.

Honestly, my overarching reaction throughout this book was, "how is it not over yet?!" This either needed to be split into two books or needed an editor to chop a good chunk of this out.
There were so many storylines and so many characters and so many mini plots that I was confused and underwhelmed by the end. I couldn't really bring myself to care much about what happened. I wish Altair had more page time, and I wish Zafira and the Lion's relationship had more page time.
All in all, this book desperately needed to decide what I wanted to be, because in the end, it was too many things and nothing all at once. Which is a bummer, because the premise and the world had so much potential and really captured my initial interest.
