WOW! First off, thank you, El Wren, for choosing me to be a part of your early reading team. I absolutely devoured this book. My bad for not checking and just assuming it was a standalone, though, because the cliff I was left hanging from? BRUTAL. Great job, though, because you left me salivating for book 2, and I can't wait to continue on this journey.
Enough rambling, let me get to the goods. Our FMC? Kat is a freaking baddie to the max. The way I appreciate that she never spoke badly about her body, ugh, you have NO IDEA how much I enjoyed that. She is a confident lady through and through. As she should be. Our MMCs are all unique in ways I appreciate, and I look forward to watching them grow. Will not say further than that and risk giving away too much.
The world-building, plot, angst, and everything were well placed and well paced. She is a THICK book, but well done and not too long. I was never once thinking that something was dragging or boring. Truly enjoyed every moment. Definitely climbed to one of my top reads of 2026. It's hard to get me up in arms for a cliffhanger anymore because of advanced reading. But this one had me wanting to throw my Kindle and scream lol I recommend joining us on this adventure.
