I— what the fuck????
Holy shit. Holy— that ending. Wow. Um, I got shooketh

It's really cool from the start to the end. I love Violet, she is so smart. The mind of a scribe and the heart of a rider, Andarna said. Really cool. The conflict between her and Xaden is really understandable, considering what they've been through, even though I read many people don't like it. But I understand. Anyway, I can't wait for the third book.

This was an excellent book! It got a little slow in the middle and I personally felt it lost a little traction, but it picked up again and had a great last half and amazing ending. The characters and plot are so so good
