I devoured this book. Glad I took the time to read the prequel, heartbreaking as it is. Excited to see how this fits into the next books.

I read this book third, per SJM recommendation, and i honestly wish i had read it first! It was so so good. A great introduction to the mfc and why is the way she is. Even though i knew how this one was going to end, it absolutely gutted me and i will never recover.
“My name is Sam Courtland and i will not be afraid” will play through my mind for the rest of the series, and probably forever after that.
