Im still crying as im writing this. This stupid book made me feel too many emotions. The story and the characters are so well crafted and i am already missing the book. Also im happy the characters get a damn break at the end bc they deserve it they went through so much like i would have died 13 times

Maybe I'll get back to it. Just was a bit slow paced compared to the first one

The team parts and comes back together - very power of friendship/team/zumra. Themes of learning to be a better person, even when the person in question is a haunted book of stolen memories, as well as not perpetuating trauma.

I am just so sooooo glad all these traumatized idiot babies got their happy endings. I mean, I was doubtful, they kept plunging into conflict with ZERO plans but they pulled it together. It lagged for me in the middle but the end really picked up and I loved the multiple POV’s so much more in this one. This duology really is a treasure and it’s so worth the time.
