Never in my life have I almost cried at every chapter of a book before. Beautiful, incredibly relevant and moving. I resonated with Bitter so much, she was so realistic and it makes some of her actions in Pet make so much more sense, it was such a pleasure to view this world through her eyes. Once again the "angel" designs and actions were fantastic and I love how different they are to Pet. This was amazing and i'll be thinking about it for a while.
