A few thoughts:

🎀 The world created by the author for these books is incredibly imaginative. I’m astounded by the details, the collective elements created to enhance the story. I fell down a bit of a fandom rabbit-hole with this one & actually loved the art created to represent people’s interpretations of each of the characters.

🎀 I kind of struggled with Violet’s constant banging on about knowing every detail, that whole argument got old fast. 🙄

🎀 The half way point is always where shit gets soooo good. Hate having to put the book down kind of good.

🎀 Torture scenes were a bit graphic for my preferences. Kind of brutal in parts.

🎀 I love Tairn’s no-nonsense approach to everything & Andarna’s sass when she woke from the Dreamless Sleep.

🎀 In true Yarros style, expected whiplash in the final chapters as the momentum truly gets going & you constantly pivot from new revelation to new revelation.

🎀 Jack freaking Barlowe. That’s all I can say. IYKYK.

🎀 Thank Gods tomorrow is the 21st of January.
