the sheer amount of names and political information in this book forced me stop reading for a few months, but then i locked in again. 

the sexual tension, chemistry, and banter between two opposing sides who want nothing more than to tear each other apart, before slowly realizing they’d be better off working (scheming) together. no one does it quite like cezhou i fear.

My heart... it hurts.
This was beautiful.

When the last piece of the puzzle got in place at the end, I wanted to feel such joy for this novel's fenomenal development but I was still ugly crying over the previous events so I cried and laughed and fell in love even more.
I will forever revisit this marvelous world full of characters I love and a plot that was beautiful and challenging.
