This was literally insane. Like. Pierce. You’re a poet by all means poetry needs to be. The words that each character left us with and how Darrow himself is just formed by them. The poetry is  in the plot and the structure of relationships, as they unfold and how Darrow values each of them. I mean, the depth of Darrow’s character literally leaves me in tears. 

AND THE TWISTS. FROM THE LITERAL BEGINNING OF THIS BOOK TO THE END. 

I —

No one couldn’t seen the last 200 pages coming. Not the end. Like. Just. I WAS AUDIBLY GASPING. Also, the narrators for these books are just TOP TEIR. TOO GOOD. It is making my consumption of these stories 10x more enjoyable. Ugh. Literally started morning star right after because I was like - I MUST KNOW WHAT OCCURS.
