The amount of pain and trauma every single character has gone through in this book is absurd. Just bc the first one had more deaths doesn't make this one any better.
Because this is the second book all the characters are coming into their own more and becoming more loveable.
I'm still not onboard the Sel and Bree train, I wish they would be platonic like Will and Bree, but they are well written I'll give them that.
I'm looking forward to the next book, I need to know how this turns out.

I was rooting for a triad the whole freaking book, and I gotta say this author had me worrying multiple time this would be yet another clichĆ© love ātriangleā. I really hope wherever she decides to go next with the characters breaks that boundary and allows us to get the beautiful triad we deserve (all romantic or romance and QPR, I donāt care. As long as we *get* it!)
If you think book one delved into Black trauma, I got some news for youā¦ Tracy Deonn took what she included in Legendborn and dialed it to 11. It is BRUTAL, so make sure to check the triggers.
Iām excited for the next book, but Iām worried about all the feelings sheāll make us go through šµāš«
