lareinadehades's review against another edition
I had to stop because it's making me a little too uncomfortable how close it seems to echo Fullmetal Alchemist, the Riza and Roy pairing in specific when it comes to the protagonists of this book.

This was such a slow burn book! I went into the book not really knowing what to expect, and came out with characters overcoming forces that were against them.
Reading Margaret’s thoughts and feelings of being shackled to her mom because she is her mom was so sad to read. You know that the relationship is not healthy at all, yet she clings to the blood relation and is willing to risk herself for her mom. Seeing Wes open up Pandora’s box was satisfying and allowed Margaret to be selfish for once in her life.
I do have a few questions that were answered in the end, but I did find satisfaction so it’s okay! Really good read :)

1.5 stars / there’s nothing i dislike more than books that make me feel like i’m wasting my time. i didn’t like just about anything here; the characters were boring if not downright aggravating, the romance was…weird, to put it mildly; the plot not interesting in the least! i’m sure it might be an instant favorite for some people, but there was a lot i simply didn’t like here.
thank you to wednesday books for the arc.
