4.5

This book had way more political aspects than the previous one in the series and still not quite sure if I liked that or not. This book was also very very sad and depressing for a long time and that was a bit too much for me. It took 300 pages to finally get to see some light at the end of the tunnel. I did really like the themes of (found) family and unconditional love, friendship, sexism/feminism and lgbtqia+. This book was definitely an emotional rollercoaster.

“The complicated thing about good and bad people alike is that most of us can be both at the same time.”
