* I got this book for review from the publisher*

I really wanted to love this book. I found this book to have a super fun concept and really loved he setting. But I felt like the pacing of this read, along with the world building did confuse me. I really liked the main character. I felt like there was less side characters to expand the world and that made me enjoy it less. But overall it was enjoyable read! I just wanted the world to be a tad clearer.
