This really is a series about healing. It's slower, more realistic, but holy shit if it isn't lovely. 

Jean's growth from the last book to this one is incredible, and we are finally getting more development from the rest of the cast. His relationship with Cat is definitely a highlight, and I'm loving to see the dynamics between the Trojans. And Exy games!! They are super fun and impressively easy to follow considering that the sport doesn't even exist in the first place.

Jeremy... is still very evasive, but now we have his fucked up past and only need *him* to realise how fucked up he still is over it all. Truly a man denying his way through being fine (not). Can't wait for the moment he eventually crashes out.

Any time the Foxes were even mentioned they stole the scene, I *loved* seeing their antics from an outsider's perspective and their different relationships towards Jean were soo bittersweet.

Overall I'm really excited to see what Nora has in store for us next!
