I liked a lot about this book. The characters were nuanced and complex. The world was fascinating and offered interesting insight into “us vs. them” dynamics. The witchy vibes were fabulous. And it had heart-wrenching conversations on trauma and its lifelong impact.
 
However, I was bummed that the twists in the book were rather predictable. Also, the primary romance in the book had some decent physical attraction build-up, but not much emotional build-up so it felt a bit rushed.
 
Overall, a four-star read for me! I liked it but didn’t love it. I am looking forward to seeing what’s ahead in book 2, though!
