This book is really good, but speed reading for HISP makes it less enjoyable.

This is my favorite book I have read this semester. The imagery is beautiful, and this book pulls lots of emotions out of me. It’s engaging and enjoyable, even though I wanted to ripped Esteban out of the book and personally strangle him.

I’m honestly sad that I have to read this for school in such a short time period. The writing is beautiful, and magical setting is amazing. I feel like I can’t enjoy it as much unfortunately.
