This book is like the feeling of the author pulling my heart out of my chest and rip it to shreds infront of me. Gimmie that second book RIGHT NOW DONT DO THIS TO ME 

I’ve never read a Rachel Gillig book before (I know I know One Dark Window has been on my tbr forever I’ll get to it!) but this certainly will not be the last I read from her this was incredible! 

Enchantingly beautiful, hingeing on gothic vibes and religious fervour, I could not put this down. It was just so gorgeously written, heartbreaking and just so well done. 

The lore was fascinating, the diviners and the gods worked so well with the story. The gargoyle was one of my fav characters too, what a sweetheart :’)

Anyway 10/10 for the plot, the incredible writing, the general vibes, and the little side romance!

Ps. Give me more books with romance side plots over romantasy! I saw a lot of people disappointed that this WASNT a romantasy but I feel like the level of romance we got was perfect for the story and the character development, it fit in perfectly but didn’t overshadow the characters themselves or the overarching plot!
