I maintain I just cannot understand why this woman is obsessed with the phrase "gobbling down" as in, eagerly taking in the details of something. It makes me think the whole cast are, like, turkeys or something. Wild.

I liked book 2 MUCH more than book 1, there are aspects of this book I wish were less rigid. Also I basically cringe everytime they say “female”

This book is what I expected Maas to write. There was a more shocking plot and the

slow burn romance

was perfect for my tastes. The political aspect of the book is similar to fourth wing 🙌.
