I really liked this book! It seemed very predictable, but had a twist (of a few) I wasn’t expecting. The diversity of the characters was great. Honor was a wonderful character, and I wish more books were purposely this inclusive. The end left me wanting more, but that’s how some people write!

It was a slow burn, and I was intrigued by the middle. It then became far too drawn out and confusing for no reason. A lot of details that were seemingly important never were touched on. The ending was easily predictable, but again confusing cramming it into 3 pages of dialogue.
