Holy shit. HOLY SHIT. OF COURSE IT ENDS THERE. SO FUCKING GOOD. I cannot wait until December 2023.

I've only read the Blood and Ash/Flesh and Fire books from JLA's arsenal, but I think this is her strongest book in the universe thus far. It feels far more polished and better edited than the others, with less word repetition and excess word fluff, while still maintaining all the things I love about her books in this universe -- the plot PLUS fluffy scenes that don't need to be there to further the plot but are.

I cannot possibly wait another year for the next book to come out. I considered not reading the last fifty pages or so but then I couldn't resist and 1) I regret it because obviously the book ends in kind of a cliffhanger but 2) I don't regret it because this book made me feel all the emotions. Angst, tension, love, FRUSTRATION, hope... I'm very excited for the next book.
