About this listen

Plain-spoken, headstrong Ophelia cares little about appearances. Her ability to read the past of objects is unmatched in all of Anima, and, what’s more, she possesses the ability to travel through mirrors, a skill passed down to her from previous generations. Her idyllic life is disrupted, however, when she is promised in marriage to Thorn, a taciturn and influential member of a distant clan.

She must leave all she knows behind and follow her fiancé to Citaceleste, the capital of a cold, icy ark known as the Pole, where danger lurks around every corner and nobody can be trusted. There, in the presence of her inscrutable future husband, she slowly realizes that she is a pawn in a political game that will have far-reaching ramifications not only for her but for her entire world.

I really struggled to finish this book. it was very boring and honestly nothing happens at all that's remotely interesting. Do not waste your time or money!

Regretted finishing

The whole audiobook I was convinced that this book would get good soon, as it has such an interesting premise, but when it ended I was incredibly disappointed. Tons of world building, but minimal character development, and basically nothing happened. Really disappointed in this one.
