I breezed through this book. Super easy to read and a Russian based fantasy story so it was a nice change of pace from the usual medieval England type fantasy books. It's definitely a book written by a woman because EVERYTHING is about beauty. Every single character is going to be described as “the most beautiful girl I've ever seen” or every guy is going to be very good looking. I want to picture what he looks like not how good looking he/she is. What's he wearing? Does he have facial hair? Does he have a scar? Etc.
