I liked the premise of this book, but I had a hard time getting into it for some reason. I don't know if I just didn't connect with the characters or if it felt like there was just too much going on overall. It didn't hook me like other post-apocalyptic or fantasy books do.
I did like the cover, though! And the magic system was unique and interesting. But other than that, it wasn't necessarily a stand out read for me.
