genuinely so confused as to why this is one of the most talked about fantasy books of all time. i was hoping this one would work for me and it reeeeeeally didn't; the pacing was so weird, rin is so aggravating, 90% of the characters have no depth at all. kitay is probably the only reason i read this far into it in the first place.
