As much as I started to like the ending of this book I could not reconcile it with the actions from the first 1/2. I feel no sympathy for Laurent, even though I’m sure he’s gonna get some kind of tragic backstory to excuse his actions. Nevertheless, the political intrigue that began at the very end of the novel was interesting, so I may continue the series to see where it goes from here.

The trigger warnings are to be taken very seriously. Very very seriously. If you can stomach the very wrong and depraved things that occur in the book, you might come to enjoy the story.
