this has definitely been my favourite of the series so far. mostly because there's no ambiguous ignoring of consent anymore but I also do love a murderous and powerful woman who does absolutely not need a man to help her. as her husband said, he's just her pretty accessory.

God this series has tanked for me. Like every other chapter had some sort of "major" revelation. I needed some consistency this book could not provide. The overused trope of Poppy being relatively innocent is getting old as hell too. I do enjoy how badass Poppy is and how much she is growing physically and emotionally but I swear this next book has to be better because I BARLEY made it through these last 50 pages.
