Wow this woman can write politics. One of the most complicated and enriched fantasy worlds I’ve read. 

I will start by saying I want Nahri to destroy the lives of every single one of those men. My girl didn’t deserve any of that. Dara had me in the first half and I was rooting for him whilst Ali annoyed me for 60% of the book. But you lost me at the forced coercion my guy. And actually, as much of a self righteous brat Ali could be, he was the only one was truthful to Nahri when everyone else lied to her face but still expected the most from her.
I hope if anything (though I doubt it will happen) that Nahri rinses these men for filth, takes over the city for herself but keeps Ali as a friend because she does not need that stress . 
I’m still pretending those ears aren’t a thing.

ALSO IM RIHJT ABOUT THE UNCLE DAD?

lighterthaneyre's review against another edition

I just really didn't enjoy the male character that is the main character's POV into the magic world. He kidnaps her and is hostile and threatening and she keeps thinking "gosh he's got guess I should escape now"

I only got 1 chapter of the prince POV character and. He's just naive to the point of stupidity and has huge racism blinders. I wasn't having a good time so I stopped.
