Review: Serpent & Dove

It has been a long time since a book has sucked me in the way this one did. I'm talking staying up way too late, just one more chapter, going to be tired tomorrow but I can't put it down kind of thing. I devoured this book in 4 or 5 days.

Mahurin's debut is a feisty, colorful, swoon-worthy heartache of a book, with vibrant characters and a magic system that is equal parts brutal and beautiful. Morality is a constant gray area, and watching the characters struggle with their respective sides of this divided world was a a joy. With lough-out-loud humor and a hold-your-breath, enemies-to-lovers romance, Serpent & Dove kept me turning pages long into the night.

The ending fell a little flat for me. I was hoping for a more powerful moment of reconciliation between the main characters, and it just wasn't there. Instead, the final few chapters felt a bit disjointed and rushed. That being said, I will definitely be picking up the second book in hopes of more of that fantastic romance!
