انتهت وأنا بشيل فكي من الأرض يوم الثلاثاء ١٢ أغسطس لعام ٢٠٢٥ الساعة ١٠:٥٨ مساءً.

ايه

في
أم
الرواية 
دي؟؟؟

فكي كان واقه على الأرض من فرط الدهشة والاستمتاع، بقالي فترة طويلة مش مستمتعة بكتاب بالمنظر دا لدرجة بتهز من الحماس يلهوي.

My exact facial expression: 😱

Because WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN?!?!

I— HUH?!

I’m sorry, my brain stopped functioning like 50 pages ago

AERI WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVE THE AMULET?!?! AND THE FUCK YOU MEAN “FATHER”?!?!

 

I need the next book like I need oxygen. Because 😃 what??? Respectfully: WHAT THE FUCK?!

The dramatic irony, the situational irony, the fucking secrets that no one knows, not even you? And then— the ones you do know?? Oh my gosh this book is a masterclass on reveals of secrets, and foreshadowing— and how to write multiple POVs bc WOW! 

This book is insane in the best way possible. This series better have them all LIVING happily ever after with all their goals accomplished. Emphasis on LIVING! 

Oh my gosh this book was absolutely brilliant. I went through a speedrun of the 5 stages of grief with that plot twist ending. 

Ordering the next book literally right now, can not recommend enough.
