Absolutely stunning book! I despaired for Vasya, worried for her and couldn't put the book down before I could see through this seemingly impossible mess. Loved how fleshed out the characters were, absolutely adored the siblings' dynamics. The ending was a rush but something from it felt maybe a little too rushed as I felt from the last book. Still, this is just a minor criticism, this book has stakes and serious consequences. Love it!
