HOLY FUCKING SHIT. I PUT OFF READING THE ENDING FOR TWO DAYS BECAUSE I COULDN'T DEAL WITH THE ANGST AND THEN LARA COMES IN AND DOES THAT AND I'M STILL LIKE AHHHH I CAN'T COPE BUT EQUALLY LIKE YES LARA AND I WANT MORE

This is by no means the best fantasy I've ever read but it has a spark and an intensity that makes it addictive. The characters are loveable and there's a real connection.
