I am very excited for the rest of the books in this trilogy. I thought this book was decent but it was definitely (hopefully) setting up for the series.
I love the concept of this book. The magic, the atmosphere, the people, and the plot are all unique. I enjoyed very much getting to know Tea and the circumstances that get her to become a powerful Bone Witch.....I THINK she becomes a powerful Bone Witch. You get snippets throughout this book showing Tea being strong and wielding a power that the world has never seen. The majority of the time the book is going through Tea's life after she learns that she has the magic of a Bone Witch. It's almost like an origin story - we just don't know what makes Tea such a legend yet. There are a FEW exciting parts, however, most of the book is pretty boring. They go over her lessons, the people she meets, the roles of the different people, the history, etc. Which is great, but it's a little dull when that is the WHOLE of the book.
My rating would have been less if this was a standalone. Overall, I think this book gave a lot of information that built this world and these characters and I am excited to get to the next two books!
