I absolutely devoured this book. It is a heartbreakingly beautiful story of love and resistance. I do highly recommend checking the trigger warnings ahead of reading this book. But, if you are able to handle those topics, this book is well worth it. The love that Constanta has for her consorts while facing the wrath and unpredictability of her husband gives hope they will one day be free from his rule. I could not put this story down until I knew how it ended. Definitely recommend reading!!
