My Thoughts:

Wow. I wasn’t sure I would be leaving a review for this one because I always feel a little weird review the work of people I’m connected with. She had no idea I would reading her book or leaving this review. 

Kami has a way of writing that flows well and keeps you interested from the beginning. I read this book so quickly without even realizing it and what a unique world she has created!

The characters are well developed and there is some decent growth there. 

The book only covers the journey to the destination so there are so many questions left unanswered! I’m hoping the next book will shed some light on how the world got the way it did and maybe some background on wonder work. 

Either way, I’m glad I picked up this book and looking forward to reading the second!
