challenging dark emotional funny sad tense medium-paced

4.0

This book legitimately hurt to read. My heart ached for the characters all throughout this one.

But, as always, Cassandra has offered another masterpiece of a story that is truly leading to what must be the most epic conclusion of all time. 😭🫶

A male character tries to sexually assault a female character, but she stops him. This could be traumatic or triggering for some readers,

especially because the male character is her brother.

The Details:
 Narrated by Grant Cartwright and Eloise Oxer
Unabridged

I think this may have been my least favourite of the series. I felt like there was too much going on and I got confused at which plot I was following.

A lot of the side characters had some povs too, so I found it difficult to keep track of everyone, despite being familiar with their voices from prior books in the series.

I know this was an important novel, building up to climax, but it was very overwhelming with the abundance of threads that were weaving together.
