I enjoyed this book. It’s very low fantasy, but the world is very interesting. I love this seemingly mysterious bridge that helps this otherwise hurting nation keep itself afloat. I did feel like things weren’t completely flushed out though. I had a hard time picturing or understanding why everyone had to use this Bridge Kingdom. Like yes there are storms and such but it seems like people did get around them? Idk.

Even though a lot of time passed in this book, I don’t know that I believe the love declarations. He doesn’t really know her and from what I personally read, they didn’t seem to have a lot of conversations or anything really to get to love when it was first said. I believed it more toward the end. 

I did enjoy their relationship though. It felt 90% of the time to develop in a way that was believable. 

I think the books ended in an interesting place and I’m extremely interested in moving to book two.
