I really loved this book and the dark prison atmosphere. I really like Kiva as a person she's been through so much allready.
Jaren I really come to love.

🏥4.5 stars!💂‍♀️For me, five star ratings are very rare, but I think this book deserves one. Everyone online is saying how niche and underrated it was, and I wanted to be in the know. And here I am, glad to say that it is worth the hype.🫰FAVOURITE: The plot twists at the end had me SHOOK. Just when I thought it couldn't twist further, it did. Did NOT see that coming. I can't wait for a reread of this book.👍Really loved the characters! Tipp is adorable, Mot is funny and Naari is a memorable side character as well. Obviously, I love our main characters a ton.👍The plot was pretty good. Aside from the plot twists, I also really liked the mystery side plot of the stomach virus (love Tipp's random fascination with rats, by the way).👍An oddly emotional read? I cried like, 6 times. It goes a bit into some deep topics, which I didn't expect, but ended up not minding it.👌The romance was just a bit rushed. Jaren indeed is a bit idiotic and it felt kinda insta-lovey, especially on Jaren's side. But after finishing the whole book, their hasted romance was very much necessary to the plot.👌Some parts of the story were confusing, but it clears up in the end. 👌Liked the writing! Good pacing, good prose. But there was nothing EXCEPTIONAL about it, hence the "okay" category.
