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 🥹
