    A LOT happens in this book, and it's a lengthy read because of it. Definitely one to enjoy over a lazy weekend when you can stick your nose in a book and not come up for air until you've finished. The author wisely keeps her main characters from becoming 2 dimensional stand-ins for societal issues, even as she unabashedly tackles topics like institutional racism, toxic masculinity, and generational trauma. If you haven't read the first two books of The Legendborn Cycle, you will need to start with them first, because the plot and character developments in Oathbound come flying at you quickly, and it would be hard to keep up without enough prior knowledge. Tbh, I think Oathbound could have used with a little more editing and proofreading before publication, which is the only reason I didn't give it 5 full stars
