This book has been a great time for me. It was certainly better than TOTSQ. Lor was a bit insufferable at the start but she evolved in a very satisfying way. I love Nadir, he might be one of my rare book boyfriends if the sequel is going to be as good as this book. I love that he knows his wrongs and I think he might try to not replicate them next. Also love that he is a feminist despite his nature. Only down side to the book is that the writing at times is unrealistic. Like Lor, a woman that has been in prison most of the time, has a complex vocabulary. At times I had to look up the words she uses even if she has not read a single book (or at least she didn't say so) in her life. Her vocab is even larger than people living in castles! Like only Lor uses words like "surreptitious" or "anti-climatic". Oh and also Lor has been a bit homophobic towards her sister and Amya

Wow. Just wow! The first two books of this series was incredible (and it’s not even finished yet). It honestly reminded me a little bit of Kingdom of Flesh and Fire and I am a BIG fan. I have a feeling the third book will knock my socks off considering I couldn’t put down the first two books until I was done them. The plot? Perfect. The characters? You’re so invested that you either REALLY hate them or REALLY love them. The third book drops March 18, 2024 (on KU) and I set a reminder in my phone already 😆
