I was really worried I wouldn't like this book because the cover is gorgeous, but oh I'm so glad it was amazing. It's classified as a YA but it felt more adult to me which I enjoyed. It hooked me from the beginning. I loved all the characters but especially Zofia. She is one of those extremely literal people who doesn't understand sarcasm. I could feel the chemistry between Severin and Laila and really wished we had gotten more steam from them. I liked how the book is told from each of the 5 character's perspectives. The way magic and science melded together in this story was really interesting and I loved how some Egyptian mythology was added. The incorporation of The Tower of Babel was really cool. I've never read any book that deals with that aspect. The cast of characters is so nicely diverse. I can't wait to read the sequel and see where this story goes.
