woohooo this is the first book I finished reading in 3 months. I've been rewatching buffy the vampire slayer and reading soooo much buffy fic :D and watching some tv series like heartstopper :D 

it feels good to listen to a book again. I did enjoy this book, although reading a book in short bursts over 3 months isn't the best way to experience it. 

 

I love the magic system of this series, I sometimes don't like the main character very much. He's so very arrogant and not aware enough of his own privilege and his blind spots stemming from that privilege. He's so convinced he is the only one who can save people and end their suffering, while not realizing his own shortcomings in identifying who is a person that needs to be saved. I don't know, he's trying, and he does try to lift people up but sometimes he just rubs me the wrong way.
