Rezension von CarinaDNF at about 55%<br/>I felt nothing about this. The characters are flat. The beginning so ridiculous. The love between the two is based nothing save for witty banter (not even much of it) and playing a game.<br/>Not to mention the whole slave thing is just horrendous. And then the being all betrayed that the people who got enslaved fight back?
Rezension von BelRelectura que hago de esto libro después de 8 años y lo he vivido tantísimo que me lo he acabado en un par de dias, la relacion de Arin y Kestrel es que es una relacion enemies to lovers tan bien construida me ha tenido en un sin vivir de sentimientos <b><blockquote>"You don't, Kestrel, even though the god of lies loves you."</b></blockquote> TRILOGIA FAVORITA EVER ♥ ---------------- La verdad que no sé por donde empezar porque ha sido una historia de muchos feelings sobre todo de la historia tan complicada que tienen kestrel y arin y toda las complicaciones que les rodean pero que a pesar de todo el amor del uno por el otro es lo que destaca a pesar de que se jueguen la vida para ello. <blockquote>“Isn't that what stories do, make real things fake, and fake things real?” </blockquote> Kestrel se ha convertido en una de mis protas favoritas sin duda con todo lo que pasa sigue siendo ella y la que mas sufre y Arin es que no le puedo juzgar por nada porque él tiene sus razones pero se ve que siempre va a poner a Kestrel antes y lo que siente por ella y es un libro que te atrapa su historia que sabes desde el principio que se va a complicar mucho todo pero aun asi amas cada una de sus paginas y que ganas de empezar el 2º con mis niñas <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/5885297-jess">Jess</a> y <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/766522-desa">Amp</a> y bueno menos mal que hemos comentado el 1º juntas para aguantar el sufrimiento jajaja
