This was surprisingly cozy and lighthearted, despite all of the dark topics and content warnings. Juliette and Roma are no longer the same characters as they were in the These Violent Delights duology, but I'm glad they're living the lives they deserve, as well as Benedikt and Marshall. The banter is hilarious.

Favorite Quote:

"Hey," Juliette said. The word was muffled because she hadn't bothered drawing away first.
"Hmm?"
"We should have a fight."
Roma made a perplexed sound, thinking he had misheard her. "I beg your pardon?" (Pg. 91)

HAHAHAHAHHAAHAH 笑死了！
