I took a break from this series for a while but it pulled me back in, as the child gets older the story becomes better and better.

Re-read in preparation for Saga Vol. 10
Ahhh Hazel's incarceration period, how I love it. Honestly one of my favourite volumes so far, I really loved getting to meet Petrichor and seeing IV grow closer to the family, but the ending really made me tear up when they had to leave Klara behind. Seeing Marco and Alana work together again was also such a relief.

God, I had forgotten how many sexy people are in this series. Also realised I had never truly appreciated just how much of a dreamboat Marko is.

Older Hazel is so cute but I still miss traffic cone shaped Hazel. 

This series just hits all the feelings and is so hopeful. This volume was much more eventful than #5, so I'm glad that it's picking the pace back up again.

This volume is chock-full of action and beginnings of new interesting plot lines. We get to see Hazel's physical and mental growth, the new life that her grandmother makes for herself, new side characters that bring a lot of potential to the table, and Alana and Marko reunited. Old characters also return and are just as intriguing and fun to watch as ever, and it ends with a big plot point that setups a nice cliffhanger for the next volume. Great development for the story so far!
