First, I want to talk about the cover. It is GORGEOUS and I can't stop looking at it! This book sounds exactly like one I would love to read, and end up enjoying. The premise of the Sunbearer trials is so interesting, I want to know more details of it and if there's anything nefarious happening behind the scenes. I expected to see some wholesome scenes with the MC and his friends, and maybe a bit of romance too? This book looks so good !!
