Where Dreams Descend by Janella Angeles

4.0

Okay so I really liked this book but I didn’t read it super closely. When they were explaining the lore of the place I was getting confused and I’m honestly still not sure what the hell happens with the mirrors. Overall however I liked the characters but I didn’t love the overall premise - if you look at the story arc it’s an exposition, escape, competition, and then multiple things happen and go wrong, and then there’s a big cliff hanger. I liked a lot of it but I didn’t feel like the stakes were high enough. The books main driving force was Kallia and Demarco’s love, in my opinion. While I liked the mystery and the way the chapters perspectives moved around - I don’t know. Something isn’t sitting right with me.
