    A coming of age story about grief, love and family that unfortunately just didn’t work for me.

    This book is divided into two and I did somewhat enjoy the first part. A lot of it revolves around Leo and her relationship with her brother, but mostly with her dad. You get to see the importance he plays in her life, how he shapes her and influences her actions and way of thinking, which was interesting to understand how much Leo’s dad meant to her.

    With the second part though, I just felt bored. This book has a very slow pacing, where you just follow Leo’s daily life, but everything is so monotone and not much influential to her life actually happens. To contradict the slow pacing, some cuts between scenes were so sudden that I was confused how the characters had gotten there. There’s so much time spent in certain moments, but then there’s no proper transition between them.

    Both the characters and writing felt so empty and I struggled a lot with caring. The writing is emotionless and very monotone and it just felt like the characters didn’t feel strongly about anything. Even with the sapphic sub-plot, I’m still not sure why the characters liked each other and for a while I didn’t even understand that they actually did like each other.

    The sapphic plot was a big reason to me wanting to read this book and not only is very secondary to the story, but, again, it didn’t feel like there were any emotions behind this relationship. It was there and that’s it.

    Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC!

    ahhh I’m a little disappointed with this one. I liked the characters and the plot and I specially liked the plot twist and how well it was introduced and how it changed the trajectory of the story, but I found it a little slow paced for a novella, the The Demise and Desmesne of Dragons chapters didn’t really make much sense to me and I wish they would’ve been incorporated better into the story and have more importance in the main plot.

    The sapphic aspect was really lacking and I wanted more from it, and some things were left without explanation, though I’m presuming these might be addressed in the sequel which, despite everything I didn’t like about this one, I’m actually kinda interested in.
