Essa é uma leitura bem mais adulta, diferenciando dos demais, mas ainda sim, tem aquele brilho de inocência, misturado com a intensidade dos personagens, tornando bem sólidos a construção da narrativa.
Amo como ele trabalha a representatividade em suas histórias, porque vamos ter romance e hot pesadão: sim! Foi um surto atrás do outro.
Apesar de ser um livro imenso, a leitura é tão dinâmica, rápida, hábil, que não deu pra largar enquanto não terminasse. Não vejo a hora de ler as continuações e saber o que tanto o bando Bennett trará para nós.

I also wish Joe and Ox had less of an age gap, given how early in their lives the book starts and how much you are shown of their early lives, vs when they are adults. I feel like this story would’ve been just as good starting when they were both teens with a few references or flashbacks to childhood if necessary. It would’ve worked well given the writing style also.
But on the plus side I loved the way Klune writes the pack and shows you how deeply their love lies. You can really feel it seeping out of the pages. He writes relationships really well and every character feels so alive, and real. I also really liked the way they talked. In some books this kind of dialogue can be cringe, but I didn’t feel it here. Everyone has real, solid weight in the story, they can reach out and touch everything, they a part of it all. The magic too, felt so real, even though it’s not explained so much.
I probably won’t continue the series because I don’t think its going to undo any of the issues I had with it, but I also think this book works well as a standalone
