Christ, this book is DENSE (hard to argue that 800+ pages isn’t excessive). Jude went through so much I honestly began to lose track. A good read, but definitely a one-and-done.

This book devastated me and I can’t recommend anyone read it because it’s just so heartbreaking but it’s one of the best books I’ve ever read

took me like 300 pages to get into it but once i did i couldn’t put it down. also jude and willem are lowkey wolfstar coded
