This might be my favourite one so far, though eventually I’ll have to reread the series so I can properly collect my thoughts. 

I adore Delirium; she is so dear and interesting. I loved the focus on the Endless siblings in general. They’re all so well written and thought out. I think at the moment, I’d most like to see more of Despair. 

The Orpheus storyline has been heartbreaking and touching, and his conclusion was both sad and satisfying. I love how everyone keeps pointing out how much Dream has changed, and he just cannot or will not see it. I hope he does eventually. 

I loved how we got to see a bit more of Despair, especially apart from her twin. I’m curious how different she’ll be in the Netflix adaptation. I’m also looking forward to more Desire- I want to understand more about their jelousy for Dream, and where their character is going.
