If the book was I tiny bit less predictable, it would go to my favourites. The only problem was that half of the time I was like:

But otherwise it was all REALLY awesome. The ships were kinda obvious, but I love how the author played with my emotions so one moment I was rooting for Cal and then Maeve and then for Cal again - yeah, it was an emotionaly tough journey and I loved it.
Anyway, the writing was good (I mean it was no Leigh Bardugo, but still very good) and now to the characters:
Mare - well, who couldn't love her: a thief, smart, strong (ok maybe a lot relied here on the "chosen one complex", but despite this fact while reading this whole thing it didn't feel like it, I don't know how the author did it, but God, this is goooood). Admitedly, Mare fits more than just one book stereotype, but as I said, I didn't mind it here
Cal - well, there isn't really much I can say about him. There was definitelly a lot of mixed emotions, but I'll leave that to you to figure that one out yourselves.
Maeve - this was a one big predictable plot twist. I knew it since the very first moment i "saw" him. Come on, who didn't??? Despite my criticism, I must admitt that for a second there in the middle I honestly hoped I was wrong after all.
Kilorn - i'm really surprised the author didn't use any stereotype here, you know, like the best-friend love triangle (when the best friend really has no chance), but we'll see what the next parts bring...
You know all those annoying books where there's a small part of the book on it's back instead of description. Well usually I hate those, but I found a line in this book, which would describe everything much better than the actual description. It is something Farley said:

"You want me to pin my entire operation, the entire revolution, on some teenaged love story? I can't believe this."
