However, I know it felt a bit out blue but I enjoyed reading Scarlett’s and Julian’s relationship. I loved (past tense) their dynamic. And when the plot picked up I couldn’t stop reading. Then the plot twists went little overboard. Basically every other page had another twist and I started getting desensitized to it. I think that was the downfall of this book.
-
Julian became bland
-
And omg Donatella.
-
Well the only character I actually enjoyed reading about was Julian before the plot twist and, surprisingly, Legend.
-
I didn’t mean be so negative but I swear I enjoyed a good part of the book when the plot twist started kicking in

“I think you’ve forgotten how to live, and your sister is trying to remind you.”
Good to be back to reading a fantasy book once again! I’ve gotten a copy of Once Upon A Broken Heart by the same author and was told that to get the full experience, I had to read this series again, so here I am.
To be honest, I started this book thinking it was just pure fantasy so I was somewhat surprise to see a little bit of romance in it - although it was a little falling in love too fast in my opinion. The caraval story was done alright but the ending was sort of anti-climactic. I don’t really have much to say other than, I’m surprised to see that the next book is not Scarlett’s POV since I was already heavily invested on her now so it’s sad to have another character’s point of view. But I do love Tella and I really hope and am excited to see her story with Legend!
Overall, it’s a good story but at the moment, not one I would immediately recommend to people. Maybe once I’ve read the next few books?
