Coming out of my weekend binge reading haze to tell you all this series is 10/10 and not hyped enough. I fell asleep Saturday night with my kindle in my hand, dreamed about the series, and woke up this morning to finish it!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Fantasy fans this is for you!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
❤️🔥The romance is a SLOW BURN and very closed door
😍Dreamy men (after book 1)
😂 funny characters you love (after book 1)
🔮elemental magic
🔪fights to the death
🏔mountain prisons
💣rebel movement looking to overthrow the throne
⛑main character is a healer
😇perfect angel little brother she adopts in prison
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
All these things and more are just a few of the reasons this series was so dang good! Yes being a YA fantasy series there were a few cheesy moments, like Kiva getting trained for physical strength (but she doesn’t become the best or even good which is a nice change of pace!) and lots of favorite characters dying and they have a quest and Kiva is deeply tied to it but not everything is as it seems! It took common tropes and just leveled them up a bit. 10/10 would recommend. Book 1 feels slow and then the twist has you lunging for book 2 and then book two ends and if you don’t have book 3 on standby.. be prepared!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My six word review for book 1:
Innocent prisoner heals, takes deadly challenge
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My six word review for book 2:
The world expands, Kiva is struggling
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My six word review for book 3:
So many tears, ends in twists!
