3.0
This is a story of two friends trying to gain better fortunes so they can improve their current situations in life. The book revolves around a card game called fortune's kiss, with artwork on them that reminded me of tarot cards and a scoreboard mark off that felt like a bingo sheet. The setting was dark and seductive with rounds of trials for the players, similar to the Caraval Series. Overall, it's a good read.
