The morally gray characters....sure were morally gray.........Couldn't put the book down but was incredibly stressed the entire time LOL. Shelley Parker-Chan strikes again with their masterful writing, but I found the conclusion somewhat rushed. I wish there were more hopeful moments scattered throughout the book, to make the conclusion more believable for me. I loved the book, I just don't know if I'm strong enough to read it again 🥹

Not an easy read but a worth while one. This finale took everything SWBTS started and finished it with such a freaking bang. The whole thing, for being a nearly 500 page book, read like nothing. Has awful as all the main POV characters are I couldn't walk away from it. Literally- I finished this in less than 36 hours with an insane 2 year old. Not only does this make me want to go back and start the whole duology over again, I'm now interested in how the audiobook plays out. 

Read this duology. Mind the triggers. It's a terrible time- you'll love it.

Unfortunately, I didn’t enjoy this one :( The writing is gorgeous and so descriptive,

but there was so much sexual violence/assault that I really hated

. I might be too soft for such a tragic story like this, but it just ruined it.
