i am very disappointed by this book. i liked the writing which is full of picturesque sentences that sound beautiful. but the book feels empty. there's barely any plot in it, which isn't to my taste.
i also found that the sisterly love minna and kaija proclaimed to have for one another wasn't really there. they judged each other and refused to understand each other. all the interactions they had with one another were uncomfortable because at times i felt like they hated each other. it was more as if they had to interact because they're blood relatives and they share the ability to do magic, rather than they want to interact with one another.
that wouldn't have been an issue to me if there was something happening in the text. i wish there was more story: that there was more plot, more dialogue, more lore. i feel like i would've enjoyed the book more then.
