absolute banger. sarah j maas could never

Laying on the floor staring into the void at the realization that these rich, selfish nobles had retreated entirely their plague bubble - which they could do because they were supported by servants - and then just went back to Florence after they had all had a chance to lead storytelling hour because they were tired of lockdown, with no mention of the plague.

Though I haven't read this book cover to cover, I picked it up many times over what is now years. During some of the worst times of the pandemic, I never thought I would find solace and connection to people who lived through similar experiences centuries ago. Realizing that people have always been like we are today, afraid and also bored and horny, truly changed my life and that's why this is a 5 star book for me.
