I maintain I just cannot understand why this woman is obsessed with the phrase "gobbling down" as in, eagerly taking in the details of something. It makes me think the whole cast are, like, turkeys or something. Wild.

I liked book 2 MUCH more than book 1, there are aspects of this book I wish were less rigid. Also I basically cringe everytime they say “female”

This book is what I expected Maas to write. There was a more shocking plot and the

slow burn romance

was perfect for my tastes. The political aspect of the book is similar to fourth wing 🙌.

This book was SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONE!!!!

The found family aspect, the banter, the love story. Everything was *chefs kiss* 

I’m so happy I powered through, the world building was so beautiful. I wanna live here without all the mortal peril and war and crap. Just to hang out 💁‍♀️

Side note: Tamlin, rot in hell, blondie. I hate your face, your guts, and your audacity.

ONTO BOOK 3 🫡
