Pidän erityisesti siitä, miten hyvän ja pahan rajapintaa käsitellään. Voiko kahdessa paikassa ja kahdessa roolissa elää yhtä aikaa?

“Galaxy Stern,” Darlington said, his eyes flashing gold, “I have been crying out to you from the start.”
nothing makes me happier than when the second book lives up to the first book. and when it's even better?? 😩🤌🏼
“But I like this life better.”
“Better than what?”
“Better than what I was living before. Better than a world without magic.”
this is one of those series i read and can't help but feel envious of both the characters and the author. the characters for getting to live this life, and the author for having been able to dream it up.
“Life is cruel. Magic is real. And I’m not ready to die.”
one character that i really came to adore was mercy. i feel like she was all of us readers, wishing so badly to find a way in to live magic and leave the real world behind. tripp was also a very endearing character who brought some lighthearted comic relief in as well. i did not care for hellie after this book, esp bc the babbit rabbit story.
“Fuck off.”
“I did miss you, Stern.”
the agonizing slowburn of alex & darlington is SO DELICIOUS oh my god i just know the pay off is going to be well worth it.
“Come on, Darlington,” she said. “Let's give them hell.”
